![]() ![]() One approach is narrow and specific, the other accounts for the vast majority. Often treated as interchangeable, “user-centered” and “human-centered” are disparate-same idea, different intention and execution. User-Centered Design vs Human-Centered Design.We’re excited about seeing how this page will help users and would love to hear your feedback too. Gone are the tags, most recent article by this author, twitter conversation, etc. We designed The Foundry article page previously, but the new design is considerably simpler. It makes it easy to access an answer you may be seeking that you know is in the article, without wading through a bunch of stuff you don’t care about. This allows the reader to quickly skim all the subheads in the post and make a decision on where to jump in. New Foundry DesignĪs we’ve designed it, a Foundry article can be read in two separate modes: “Full Article” and “Quick Read.” Here’s the design of the page, with both modes documented: Full Article View Quick Read ViewĪs you can see, Full Article mode is a traditional view, and Quick Read mode shows only the article subheads with a plus button to show the content for that section only. This thought made its way into the design of The Foundry article page. For example, if a user primarily uses the site for reading Foundry articles, maybe there is a way to de-prioritize more “sales-y” content and accentuate Foundry articles. In our discussions recently, we’ve been asking ourselves if it’s possible to provide the user with the ability to select a “mode” that would prioritize some content over other content. While we haven’t gone live with anything at this point, we’ve begun designing one of the lowest-level (but most visited) pages of our site: Foundry articles. Unsatisfied with that approach, Ben recently brought up the idea of building the site literally one page at a time. It was a lot to bite off at one time-when our top priority is client work-so we then tried to simplify the content in order to make it more reasonable to build in a timely manner. So we started to think through how to break off smaller chunks of the site. ![]() And it wasn’t true to the iterative nature we’ve aspired to adopt. Faced with an entire site overhaul and crammed schedules, the all-or-nothing scenario left us like deer in headlights. We had “finalized” the site design, and the next step was to build all the templates. Until recently, we had been thinking about the site as a whole in the context of the redesign. Well, we’re proud to say we’ve made a little progress. (You might remember that we’re rebuilding and posting our progress on The Foundry). BackgroundĪs you may have realized, it’s been several months since we’ve posted anything of significance on the design of our new website. Learn more on how we rebuilt The Foundry in 2019. We have made even more changes to The Foundry since this article was published. For an introduction to this process, read Ben’s initial post on the rebuild.
