Brand new website

This is one of the most visited public sector websites, so the brief was very specific:

  1. Must be fast
  2. Must be mobile friendly
  3. Must be search engine friendly

The previous web was built on top of an interesting Java-based content management and needed to be replaced on the technical side. The current solution is a JamStack-type statically generated web that provides both speed and reliability. It also gave the PPA Communications Office the opportunity to harmonise the voice and tone of the website content: https://www.politsei.ee/et/stiilijuht

The font is Adam, created by Anton Koovit. For the logo, a special vector version with less detail was commissioned.

My contributions

Analysis of the information architecture of the information system, user interface design and prototype, design system based on branding and user testing. Project management and team management were my responsibilities as well.

Overview

Accessibility

In addition to technical reliability, this was the first project for me where WCAG AA requirements had to be met. Mainly this meant familiarising myself with them, having a properly contrasting design and avoiding all kinds of embellishments like animation etc.

The end result is exactly as quick and clear as we hoped.
