Reimagining Australian weather forecasting

The Bureau website is a modern reimagining of the Australian weather and forecasting experience, driven by human intent and supported by intuitive and functional interactions.

PROBLEM

Complexity compunded

The Bureau's platforms, though widely used, struggled with outdated design, navigation complexity, and accessibility issues. Users often faced difficulties accessing critical information quickly. The challenge was to address these issues while maintaining the trust and reliability users expected. Existing and new research conducted revealed four primary challenges with the existing site:

Goals

We converted our key problems into opportunities to solve for during the re-design:

Complex to simple

Ensure that our expertise in weather forecasts and alerts can be easily accessed and is channel agnostic.

Dated to modern

Align the website with contemporary design trends, making it visually engaging and easy to navigate.

Messy to consistent

Create a consistent user experience throughout the website, reducing confusion and increasing usability.

Exclusive to inclusive

Implement inclusive design principles to ensure the site is accessible to all users.

Complex

Users struggled to find localised weather data quickly, due to a cluttered user interface, IA, and navigation design.

Outdated

The interface didn't align with modern design standards or expectations.

Inconsistent

Discrepancies between the website and app created confusion.

Inaccessible

Users struggled to find localised weather data quickly, due to a cluttered user interface, IA, and navigation design.

RESEARCH

Research & Discovery

The redesign was driven by thorough research, incorporating key design and performance metrics, behavioral data, and insights from both internal employees and external customers. Early in the discovery phase, it became clear that a complete website uplift was needed, using modern design practices and informed by recent community consultations. These consultations, conducted in collaboration with community leaders from under-served areas and extensive interviews with CALD individuals, provided valuable insights. This research shaped the design direction, ensuring the redesign aligned with both business objectives and user expectations.
