360Alumni is a Connecticut-based social networking platform created for universities to foster long-term alumni engagement. Love Local Design has enjoyed a close working relationship with 360Alumni’s team since 2012, helping to develop the 360Alumni platform through multiple iterations. We make ongoing improvements as their needs evolve, while also continuing to design all of their marketing materials.
“Love Local Design has been the user’s champion in the design and development of our enterprise platform for online communities. We have been working with them since day one, and we wouldn’t consider working with anyone else! In addition to meeting all our deadlines, they provide world class insight and best practices via local, personalized service.”

Platform Design
We began by working with Christina Balotescu, 360Alumni’s founder, to whiteboard concepts and sketch out initial wireframes for their platform design. During these sessions we identified all of the features and requirements that would eventually be included in the 360Alumni platform. From there, we built a fully interactive prototype using Axure, which went through rounds of feature, design, and functionality refinement leading to development of the final product. Love Local Design continues to provide design support and consultation during the development process of the 360Alumni platform.


“Love Local Design has been a fantastic partner to 360Alumni. We use the company extensively for website design, front-end product enhancements, user experience guidance, and digital ads. Projects are delivered on time and beautifully executed. Attention to detail is vital, and Love Local Design never disappoints. I highly recommend them.”
