Designer

I use Reddit multiple times a day, to view gaming forums, worldnews and cat videos. Reddit has 1.6 billion unique viewers a month but there is mixed feelings on the newest design they implemented a few years ago. A large sum of people still use the old version of the design, including myself because the newest design didnt keep some of the features that most people enjoyed having and found convenient for them. I decided that I would do a redesign for the reddit frontpage and combine the old and the new together.

Since this is a redesign, I kept the colours the exact same since reddits design is focused on readability and functionality. Its vital to have a mostly white background because it makes it easy to read and the blue and black creates a clear hierarchy.
Same as the colours used on the redesign, the fonts used were taken from the site itself or very similar. Readability is key here, so using something that the user is familiar and commonly used throughout the internet is important here.
