Seizures are signs website
UX, UI, IxD
Project
Seizures Are Signs is an unbranded website dedicated to helping caregivers and parents identify unrecognized or uncontrolled seizures that are linked to developmental learning and disabilities.
I was tasked with organizing the content layout, overseeing all functions and interactions of the website, and creating an assessment. The assessment allowed caregivers to identify the pain points of their patient's symptoms. The completion of the assessment was then created into a downloadable guide to help facilitate conversations with their patient’s healthcare provider.
Too many complex words
You know the feeling when someone explains a word you don’t know with another word you don’t know? Yeah, it sucks. Complex disease vocabulary makes it hard to understand any content no matter how nice you design it. Having stressed-out caregivers research all these terms is a waste of their time. I’d imagine, it’s something along the lines of having countless tabs open. So let’s give them their own cheat sheet. They can open it up anytime at their own discretion and we give them links to direct to the glossary whenever a complex term shows up.
keeping it engaging
Content-heavy websites with limited design assets make for a challenge on how to keep things visually interesting. No one likes reading through a wall of text, so we leveraged the design to help break up content and add fun elements to keep the user going.
One of the elements is the irregular angles and shapes throughout the website. The idea behind the design was to correlate with how erratic each of these seizure disorders is.
The goal was to keep the information hierarchy clean and easily digestible. While also adding transitional elements that worked in tandem with the irregular designs without taking away from the content.
