UI UX Revamp — 2024

A modern refresh for the Recording Industry Association of America website—simplifying content, enhancing usability, and bringing music to the forefront.

Challenge

The RIAA team requested a visual refresh that would feel modern and engaging without straying too far from their existing brand colors.

Goal

To move away from information-heavy layouts—often skipped by users—and create a more visually driven experience, particularly using imagery connected to music.

Solution

Redefined typographic system using lighter, more contemporary fonts, while imagery was carefully selected to resonate more clearly with music and sound
Gradients, textures, and lighting effects were introduced to bring a sense of modernity, all while ensuring strong contrast and accessibility
Subtle UX enhancements helped improve content hierarchy, reduce cognitive load, and make the site easier to navigate and digest
