Client: LabTestsOnline.org

What: UX Audit, Review, & Wireframe Concept

Why: LabTestsOnline.org required a full UX audit & heuristic review, as well as wireframe development as a suggested improvement over the current design. The key UX goals in this layout was to make search more prominent, consistent navigation for test listings, improved featured news visibility, and easier access to information. This was accomplished by refocusing the content layout, creating segmented content groups in less pages to reduce clicks, and refocusing the navigation on search & testing categories, to narrow the user’s focus.

Reviews for It's Just F(ric)king Design

Design is a broad specification with many disciplines, and naturally, with such an expansive set of tools, practices and thought processes, it can feel seemingly impossible to define. As a result, some have sought to create tightly controlled representations of what “design actually is”. However, this line of thinking is … quite frankly, BS, and can be to our detriment in the ever evolving design landscape; leaving design out of some rather important and influential conversations, when it could (should) have a bigger role in general. Why? Because design plays a role in pretty much everything we do.
