The Design and System Architecture phase for Happy Leash was focused on translating the brand vision into a functional blueprint for both client-facing experiences and backend operations. This stage began with wireframing the website to ensure intuitive navigation, engaging service showcases, and clear client pathways from discovery to booking. Visual design concepts emphasized a premium yet approachable aesthetic — combining warm, pet-friendly elements with polished typography and layouts that reflect the trustworthiness of the brand. In parallel, system architecture was mapped to support seamless client management and automation. This included planning integrations for scheduling tools, payment processing, and communication flows, as well as structuring the backend to handle new client intake, existing client bookings, and additional services such as horse care, pet taxi, and concierge requests. By the end of this phase, Happy Leash had a complete design framework and operational blueprint, providing a clear path for the development and deployment stage that would bring every component to life.
