I explored multiple wireframe variations, placing a stronger emphasis on visuals over text to create a more engaging and intuitive experience. Drawing inspiration from the team’s social media presence, I incorporated familiar visual elements to reinforce their identity. Organic compositions and playful interactions were introduced to make the interface feel more lively, approachable, and aligned with the youth-focused audience.
Once the pain points and aspirations were mapped, we took a step back to identify what information was truly essential. We streamlined the content by removing redundancies, eliminating unnecessary pages, and consolidating information into a more focused structure. This process resulted in a simplified site architecture, captured in the following site map.
Hues of the Mind is a mental health NGO and a member organisation of the United Nations SDSN Youth. Their previous website housed a wealth of resources aimed at individuals seeking mental health support. However, the experience felt overwhelming and lacked a clear, user-friendly structure-bespecially for a younger audience.
The goal of the redesign was to make the platform more accessible, welcoming, and youth-centric. You can explore the redesigned website here: https://huesofthemind.org/
Some of the key challenges identified in the old website included excessive complexity, dense and lengthy content, and an overload of pages and links that led to confusion. The information-heavy interface lacked visual hierarchy, making it difficult for users to navigate and find what they needed. Additionally, certain elements were repetitive, further contributing to cognitive overload.
We collaborated closely with the team to understand their challenges and aspirations for the platform. Through these discussions, we streamlined the content, simplified the structure, and reimagined the experience to better serve their audience.
Hues of the Mind- Website Redesign
I then derived a color palette from the team’s existing brand identity. The primary tones were kept soft and soothing, aligning with the sensitivity of the subject, while accent colors were introduced to add moments of joy and whimsy- making the experience feel more welcoming and youth-friendly.
The typography was intentionally chosen to break away from the conventional styles often seen across mental health platforms. Instead of evoking heaviness or clinical distance, the visual language aims to feel open, expressive, and approachable. The intention was not to conceal the cause, but to present it in a way that encourages acceptance, normalization, and even celebration.
Interactive elements were introduced not just to enhance engagement, but to align seamlessly with the site’s playful and approachable theme. Existing materials and illustrations were thoughtfully repurposed and placed with intention, ensuring the essence of the brand remained intact while improving clarity.
The redesigned experience brings key information into view at a glance, supported by a clear visual hierarchy. Users are no longer required to navigate through dense content- they can easily scan, prioritize, and access what they need. Strategic use of whitespace allows the interface to breathe, directing attention to essential elements and creating a more focused, comfortable browsing experience.
