Project Overview

This project was part of my Introduction to UX Design & User Research course at Pierce College (Winter 2023). The assignment required creating a high-fidelity website prototype using Adobe XD, based on real content from the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The focus was on developing a design system and applying it consistently across pages, ensuring clarity, accessibility, and strong hierarchy. The final prototype included two homepage variations, a design system page, and multiple components.

Goals

  • Create a high-fidelity prototype website using real content from the UN SDGs.
  • Build a design system page with typography, colors, and reusable components.
  • Develop at least two homepage variations that showcase real content.
  • Apply principles of visual hierarchy, accessibility, and usability.

My Role

  • UX/UI Designer: Designed two homepage prototypes with consistent branding.
  • System Builder: Created a design system with fonts, color palette, and reusable UI components.
  • Researcher: Analyzed the UN SDG content to structure information clearly and effectively.
  • Accessibility Advocate: Focused on contrast, font sizing, and logical information flow.
