Voting interface — final Figma design

Overview

The challenge

Voting interfaces carry unusually high stakes: a confusing layout or ambiguous control can change the outcome of an election. Our team set out to design an interface that was clear, accessible, and error-resistant for a wide range of voters.

I contributed to research and personas, paper prototyping, documentation of our design decisions, final mockups and high-fidelity prototypes, and multiple rounds of usability testing that reshaped the wireframes at every stage.

Approach

We grounded every decision in research and testing — lots of usability testing and revised wireframes at each stage — rather than assumptions, so the final design reflected how real voters actually navigated the flow.

Process

An iteration-driven flow

1

Research & personas

Understanding the range of voters — different ages, abilities, and comfort levels with technology — to design for inclusivity from the start.

2

Paper prototyping

Rapid low-fidelity sketches to test the ballot flow and catch confusion before investing in high-fidelity design.

3

Documented decisions

Every design choice recorded with its rationale, so trade-offs stayed transparent and defensible.

4

Iterative usability testing

Repeated rounds of testing with revised wireframes at each stage, converging on a clear, error-resistant final design.
