Content Categorization
The information in our election bulletin is organized into six major items: candidates' Information, candidates' political opinions, notes on voting, voting Rules, voting process description, and candidates' political speech.
Content Reprogramming
We have divided the candidates' political views into nine categories according to the classification of important policies of the Executive Yuan. In addition, we have selected the information that is relevant to the voters when they vote, and we have verbalized the complicated laws and regulations into "What to Know Before Voting" and "What to Pay Attention to When Voting".
Website Structure
Design Planning
In the design planning, there are three major directions set for "font design", "color planning" and "icon design".
Font design
Headline
The core objective is to make the public voice heard, emphasizing that voters should participate in national events of the election.
Inner text
The black font is easier to read and faster to read on the electronic screen than other fonts, so Siyuan black font is used as the main font.
Color planning
The color of each candidate's political party was chosen as the representative color to strengthen the reader's connection and impression of key issues.
Icon design
The main purpose is to convey the meaning clearly in a simple and single-color presentation.
Solution
Candidate's Gallery
The candidates' political opinions are visualized and the main element is the candidates' key political opinions. The simple and clean style and single color tones are used to make the whole easy to focus.
Notes on the Election Process
The points that need to be noted when voting are presented through visualization in the voting time sequence.
Pre-election Knowledge Station
The information is organized and visualized so that users can understand what to pay attention to in the whole voting process through a simple flow chart.
