Giving political agendas and policies a center stage
My roles
UI/UX Design, Design Explorations, Design System, IA, Testing
With the German Greens becoming part of the government in 2021, the party’s federal website required a significant facelift. The challenge: to reinforce their role and core values as a governing party, positioning them for the upcoming election campaigns. The goal: to facilitate clear and accessible communication of political agendas and policies to voters.
Standardised usability with maximum transparency — the result of the relaunch is a website that creates proximity, conveys the new design and provides the basis for future components — such as the election campaign updates and editorial modules.
Our approach to the web design overhaul is sustainable and responsible, balancing strategic design solutions by enabling the visual elements and (most importantly) content to take the center stage. For the project, we successfully enhanced the information architecture and navigation flows and introduced new approachable entry points into their complex political contents.
We use a scalable modular principle to implement content-specific requirements. Using clearly defined elements, templates and components, the contents are able to be differentiated, while bringing a consistent appearance across the entire website.
We developed a design system that is consistent with the existing gruene.de style guide, while challenging the status quo of the style guide by expanding the official colour scheme's use cases beyond its print-based limits. The combination of thematic icons, placement of people in the foreground and the accent color palette to manifest the party’s transformation, renewal and change.
We defined the visual and typographic hierarchies, interactions and transitions, expanded and defined the design systems which helped to organize the structure of the web interfaces. We also believe that a certain clarity can be achieved by the use of proportional scaling on modules to highlight the party’s milestone and core themes.
