If you need a model of web design, you don’t need to look further than our own Bluegrass state for one of the best I’ve seen. A measured balance between graphics, clean headings, and well written text greet consumers on every page in a friendly way when it could easily have been overwhelming. There’s an uncompromising style guide in place, good accessibility scores, and tasteful use of, but not dependence on, subtle hues.
The UK Healthcare site was recently honored for its new design by receiving a national Merit Award in the Patient Education Class by the WWW Health Awards. Other honerees were St Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital and Holy Spirit Health System.
The web, graphics, and marketing team are all to be congratulated on putting the consumer first by avoiding the traps that snag so many developing big sites these days.
