Web Design, Accessibility

This project is ongoing, and this page is still under construction. In the meantime, some work has been displayed for a general overview.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

  • Improve accessibility, architecture, readability, and flow of the DYNC1H1 website. Help the founders plug and play new content by creating a consistent visual identity and ‘saved section’ templates within Squarespace.

  • Web Design through Squarespace

Biggest Problem Areas

  • No cohesive design language or visual identity

  • Disorganized, chaotic, and cluttered layout with little to no hierarchy

  • Frequent use of infographic images that are not accessible to visually impaired users

  • Repetitive content

  • No direction/flow between pages

  • A home page that is severely lacking in information, storytelling, and direction.

  • Lengthy and bad UX writing throughout the website.

Consolidating site architecture

Originally the website had information scattered in pieces across 21 separate pages. I was able to categorize the sections of importance, understand what content could be placed together, and restructure the site to only 13 pages.

  • Grey - Navigation menu

  • White - Content groups

  • Light blue - Content subgroups

  • Dark blue - Links that direct to other sections
