HES-SO, a website aligned
with its new identity

Assignment
Visual and UX redesign
Original website
2021, built by WNG

Following the launch of its new brand guidelines, HES-SO wanted to adapt its website — which we built in 2021 — to its new colours and style.

The challenge

The website had to adopt the new HES-SO identity. Over time, the menu had grown heavy and the homepage stacked news, events and social media in successive sections, making navigation longer.

The solution

We applied the new guidelines across the whole site and used the redesign to improve overall usability. The menu was streamlined with a new top header, and the homepage now brings news, events and social media together in tabs. The goal: a more efficient user experience through maximum simplicity in navigation.
