Design Audit

[lukad03]

Homepage

• Determine if there's a way to make the banner look less rigid / dated
• Image feels inappropriate for the work. Should be swapped for something else - perhaps more abstract or more discernible
• xD logomark should be removed. Make a new one?
• Be consistent with product naming here and in banner
• Convert "Featured Resources" heading to serif font
• Use plain language for card links with arrows, similar to buttons (i.e. "Learn More >" or individualized action text)
• Button hover results in uneven arrow
• Card arrows appear off center
• Add header with 'this is an alpha' language

Footer

• Consider adding U.S. Census Bureau logo to footer
• Add Privacy and Accessibility links to footer
• Consider adding "10x funded project" to footer

Quiz

• Feels abrupt when you land here. Could benefit from primer text
• Typography feels inconsistent with other areas of the site (bigger).
• Button active state should change. Highlight purple border and text with no background instead?
• Checkmarks in progress bar use colors and line-weight inconsistent with other areas of the site.
• Last "Next" button should indicate this is the last step, i.e. "See Results" or something to that effect
• Questions should be in serif font

Resources Index

• Quiz CTA tag should have a color other than white

General Feedback

• Find ways to make design less stale, more visual, without photo elements
