During my Coop as a Project Officer at Service Canada, I was asked to update an old webpage full of useful links and resources that the many Coop students hired by SC most often use. The goal was to modernize the visual style and breakdown the information in a easy to follow layout.
The old page had a layout and styling very similar to this one:
The biggest challenge would come due to the fact that this was an internal 'intranet' page that was built upon a pretty outdate wiki-page system, very similar to the style of Wikipedia. This meant that the pages would load a lot of additional side content that in this case really wasn't needed and only served to constrain the visual style. Thus, I was determined to figure out a way to impose a modern and clean looking series of webpages on top of the standart wiki UI style.
