Police Department

Web Design
Website redesign for one of the country’s largest municipal police departments. The primary challenge was improving usability by organizing an overwhelming amount of outdated content. The existing site was bloated and difficult to navigate, making it hard for users to find key information. The goal was to create a modern, unobtrusive design that feels welcoming while also appealing to potential recruits by offering a sleek and striking look. Balancing public perception with an exciting, professional image was a crucial part of the design approach.

Due to budget limitations and the sheer size of the site, it was crucial to develop a robust and scalable design system that the police department could easily implement and expand on their own. The design system includes reusable modals, buttons, icons, and other web components, allowing the department to maintain a cohesive and consistent look as they build out new sections independently.

The design steered away from the traditional police blue, opting for a sleek palette of red-orange and blue-grey tones that evoke both warmth and authority. This modern color scheme helps the site feel friendly while also presenting a cool, striking appeal to potential recruits. Legibility and usability were key concerns, with the text-heavy nature of the content requiring clear typography and a well-structured design system to ensure easy navigation and accessibility.
Website
The redesign focused on creating a streamlined, user-centered interface that simplifies navigation and enhances accessibility. Based on user behavior analysis, the information architecture was reorganized, with intuitive megamenus featuring icons for quick access to key sections. Quick Links were placed prominently below the homepage fold for immediate access to essential services.

To manage the text-heavy content on the internal pages, a layered approach improved legibility and reduced cognitive load, ensuring information is presented in digestible segments. The end result transformed a cluttered, text-heavy site into a streamlined, refreshing platform that delivers a better user experience.
