Project Overview
We delivered a homepage design and build, a wider site build, revision rounds and structured design consultation throughout. Because the foundation was also weighing a brand refresh, our designer was given room to explore, presenting style directions and raising structural and content questions via recorded walkthroughs so every decision was made deliberately rather than by default.
Our approach
The design system took inspiration directly from the foundation's work: small squares that combine and rearrange into different formations, nodding both to children's building blocks and to the data the foundation collects. That single idea gives the site a distinctive visual language that carries serious research without ever feeling cold. We designed the homepage first, refined it with the team through Figma, then rolled the system across the wider site. The result treats children's data with the gravity it deserves while remaining unmistakably about children.
