About This Book

The modern web is inherently global—and if we want to design successfully for it, we must be ready to meet the needs, perspectives, and expectations of multifaceted, multicultural audiences.With utmost timeliness, Senongo Akpem shares a clear and accessible methodology for designing across cultures: from performing socially conscious research, to building culturally responsive experiences, to developing meaningful internationalization and localization approaches. Expand your craft, and your mindset—and start creating a richer experience for everyone on the web, regardless of location, language, or identity.

CROSS-CULTURAL 
DESIGN
in 
2016, 
began 
working 
on 
site 
redesign 
with 
the 
Regula-
tory 
Assistance 
Project 
(RAP), 
an 
organization 
that 
helps 
craft 
climate-change 
regulations 
in 
the 
EU, 
China, 
India, 
and 
North 
America. 
They 
approached 
our 
agency 
with 
few 
key 
project 
goals; 
one 
was 
to 
make 
their 
global 
reach 
easier 
to 
understand, 
so 
we 
created 
“Where 
We 
Work” 
page 
to 
display 
all 
their 
key 
regional 
actions 
on 
map 
(

). 
found 
northern-hemisphere 
map 
on 
Wikipedia 
and 
edited 
the 
SVG 
so 
it 
would 
spin 
to 
display 
different 
countries 
when 
their 
name 
was 
selected 
in 
the 
sidebar. 
thought 
it 
was 
really 
cool 
idea, 
and 
the 
client 
was 
on 
board 
too. 
Win-win. 
But 
just 
before 
launch, 
we 
got 
stern 
email 
from 
the 
client 
telling 
us 
the 
maps 
were 
wrong
“Wrong? 
How 
can 
they 
be 
wrong?” 
thought. 
“Wikipedia 
is 
always 
right!” 
But 
in 
my 
rush 
to 
get 
the 
vector 
file 
ready 
for 
development, 
neglected 
to 
note 
that 
the 
map: 
• 
didn’t 
include 
any 
countries 
formed 
after 
2011, 
like 
South 
Sudan, 
and 
• 
didn’t 
identify 
disputed 
territories, 
like 
Kashmir, 
the 
Golan 
Heights, 
or 
Crimea.
