Web and interaction designer · on-site at NHTSA in DC, through Bowhead (UICGS) · 2015–2017
The agency’s public website, brand guidelines and data tools, rebuilt around a new mark and readable under Section 508.
NHTSA adopted a new mark while I was there, and the website, its Drupal templates and the outreach materials were rebuilt around it, with Section 508 accessibility as a condition of everything that shipped.
- Decision
Agency teams and partners had one document to check while the website, templates and outreach materials were rebuilt around the new mark.
A century of road safety work became something a visitor could scrub through by year, and state safety officials, researchers and journalists could compare states on each measure and download the data from one page.
- What I did
- Interaction design, web design, Drupal templates, the brand guidelines document, interactive editorial features, a state data tool, and Section 508 accessibility, on NHTSA’s public website.
- Role
- I designed interactive guidelines for applying the mark across agency work, covering logo rules, color, type, photography, and examples in a format teams and contractors could use quickly.
