Test sites

Four design options for a research department website

Same content on every option, so the same route can be walked on each one. Only the design changes.

Each option opens in its own site. The pinned header, the recruiting studies list and the ethics reference on every study page are common to all four. Fonts, layout, shapes and tone differ. Your requirements page lists each thing you asked for and where to see it.

  1. Option one

    Track sign

    Every "go here" choice is drawn as an arrow-ended sign on a post. The warmest and most approachable.

    Open option one
  2. Option two

    Accession

    Each study, theme and group is set out like a catalogue record, with the ethics reference as its number. The quietest and most typographic.

    Open option two
  3. Option three

    Campaign

    Solid bands of colour carry big headlines, and one colour means one thing only: you can take part. The boldest.

    Open option three
  4. Option six

    Harbourlight

    The starting point the client chose in July, with the pinned banner, carrying the current content. It is the design the live site uses today. The familiar one.
