About This Project

Summary

This site reveals how gun makers and sellers contribute to violence through dangerous innovations and irresponsible marketing. We provided UX, visual design, and website development using WordPress. Inspired by investigative journalism, the brand features degraded visuals and solemn, grainy photos with bold typography. The site organizes diverse content, offers topic-based navigation, and ensures mobile-friendly data tables with a "sticky header" for easy viewing.

We aimed to create a compelling and accessible website that informs and engages users on this critical issue.

Results & Impact

The project successfully increased public awareness of the gun industry's role in violence, attracting significant media attention and user engagement. The website’s user-friendly design and compelling content facilitated informed discussions and inspired advocacy for policy change.
