Our commitment to accessibility extends seamlessly to mobile and tablet design. The website maintains its user-friendly interface and accessible features across all screen sizes. We focused on creating a responsive design that allows users to engage effortlessly with the content on various devices, ensuring a consistent and accessible experience for all users.

Accessible Branding

The visual identity of this website is meant to be as accessible as can be. The font, Castledown, by Colophon Foundry, is considered to be one of the most accessible typefaces on screen. A lot of research went into the colour palette to find combinations that weren’t problematic for users with various conditions, including such as ADHD, Autism and colour blindness. Finally, the logo evokes an eye, spotlighting the user rather than the creator.

I’m really thankful for the support and encouragement that Studio Lutalica and Lattimore + Friends have given me throughout the project.
