Site Launch: Go-Girls

GoooOOo Girl! Go go GO GIRL!! So you can probably tell we're really excited to share this latest addition with you. GO-GIRL which stands for Gaining Options-Girls Investigating Real Life (opens new window), is an engaging program for middle school girls to help increase their confidence in their academic endeavors. With such energetic target audience, we couldn't help tap in our playful side during the redesign.

Some of the criteria given to us before the redesign were the use of their colors (purple, fuchsia, and teal), their logo, and with specific request - the use of their yellow stars as much as possible. With such vivid colors, bold logo and embellishment, our main concerns were overcrowding and clashing styles. So how do you design for middle school girls with much flair while still keeping the university's web standards? Very carefully use their elements and only use them where it counts. Take a look around. We'd love to hear your feedback.
