United Nations
A New Window to the World.
United Nations an intergovernmental organization whose purpose is to maintain international peace and security, develop friendly relations among nations, achieve international cooperation, and be a centre for harmonizing the actions of nations. It is the world's largest and most familiar international organization.
As a design contractor, I redesigned multiple web projects at the UN website with high volume of daily visitors: The Sustainable Development Goals website, UN WebTV, UN Photo, UN Audiovisual Library, and UNifeed.
Challenges
- Web design methodologies had evolved a lot since their last update. How can we gain their trust with our design process in our limited timeframe?
- Each department with their own web properties takes pride of their work and identity. How can we unite them to create a more simplified system for their users?
Solutions
- Clarify assumptions and get new insights and idea through user research.
- Create a unified layout system for content on multiple websites.
- Analyze the existing styleguide and expand it to accommodate new content types and needs.
