The Alpheios Project
The Alpheios Project is a non-profit that "aim(s) to help people learn how to learn languages as efficiently and enjoyably as possible, and in a way that best helps them understand their own literary heritage and culture, as well as the literary heritage and culture of other peoples throughout history."
The Alpheios project had a Google Chrome extension and looked to create a responsive web app to host classical texts with their native translation tools. They also looked to give a facelift to their website with a tutorial animation on the usage of their tool. Troy Web stepped up to the plate to design those screens for their in-house developer to implement.

Alpheios' updated their website now coincide with the styling for the new responsive web app.
Our Approach
Alpheios is a translation tool to aid scholarly learning in classical languages such as ancient Greek and classical Latin. The native translation tools for the web application needed to be intuitive and robust.
Troy Web Consulting was tasked with designing a visual refresh of the website and the native web app in a responsive view. In addition, Troy Web created an animated video to showcase the use of the app along with a thorough style guide detailing the specifics of each element for a smooth handoff to the Alpheios team developer.
