Search Experience Mockup

Interactive mockup — not yet live

This page shows the proposed 5-step conversational search experience. All steps are fully interactive — click through them, switch holiday types, and explore the branching logic. Nothing here is wired to the live homepage yet. Once you approve the UX, I'll integrate it.

UX RATIONALE

Key UX choices for your review

💬

Conversational tone

Each step opens with a warm, personal line — never "Step X of Y". The heading adapts to the chosen holiday type on Step 2.

🎯

Context-aware questions

Step 2 activities and Step 3 weather fields change completely based on the holiday type. A ski search never shows sea temperature. A beach search never shows snow reliability.

📊

Gold progress bar

A thin 5-segment bar at the top fills as you advance. Completed segments fade to 50% opacity so the active segment always reads clearly.

Warm affirmations

"A beach holiday — wonderful." / "Ski & snow — excellent choice." These micro-moments make the experience feel curated, not automated.

🔮

Results preview on Step 5

Before navigating to /results, users see a 3-card preview with match rings. This builds anticipation and confirms the search worked.

📱

Mobile-first

The form card sits below a compact hero strip on mobile. All tap targets are 44px+. Native selects for iOS picker wheel. No z-index/touch issues.

READY TO PROCEED?

Does this feel right?

If you're happy with the flow, tone, and branching logic, just say "looks good — implement it" and I'll integrate this into the live homepage.
