Wireframe prototype used for user-testing
The brief was to create a web tool that improved the current user flow for filling out a climate risk report, which at the time consisted of multiple spreadsheets and documents saved locally. During our discovery phase of the project we conducted brainstorming sessions with the client to uncover key user needs. From this we created a wireframe prototype, conducted user testing, and incorporated the resulting insights into the final high-fidelity design.
Our final high-fidelity design seamlessly integrated the client's existing brand guidelines while elevating the user interface with a modern look and a strong focus on AAA accessibility. This cohesive design system was documented for future use.
The end product successfully fulfilled the brief by significantly improving the user experience for a wide range of users, regardless of their climate risk management knowledge. The tool empowers users with guidance, collaboration features, downloadable outputs, and access to valuable external resources.
Strong focus on AAA accessibility
