WordPress UI/UX Designer Needed for Site Cleanup and Visual Polish

Title Kadence Blocks Specialist Needed for High‑Impact Homepage Refresh (No Elementor / No Rebuilds) Project Overview VillageViewCommunity.com is a fast‑growing resident‑driven platform. The homepage is already built with Kadence Theme + Kadence Blocks, and all content is in place — but the layout needs a modern, polished, high‑impact refresh. This job is ONLY for designers who work extensively with Kadence Blocks. If your experience is primarily Elementor, Astra, Divi, or other builders, this project is not a fit. All communication must remain on Upwork. Please do not contact me on WhatsApp, email, or any external channel. Your Goal Create a visually modern, professionally structured, easy‑to‑scan homepage using Kadence Blocks only, with a clear “wow effect” — while keeping all existing content exactly as it is. This is a front‑end layout refresh, not a rebuild. Scope of Work (Precise Requirements) 1. Kadence‑Only Layout Refresh All work must be done exclusively in Kadence Theme + Kadence Blocks No Elementor, no Astra, no Divi, no plugin changes, no backend changes The final homepage must remain easy for me to update going forward Communication must stay on Upwork — no WhatsApp or external messaging 2. Modern Visual Polish Apply professional UI improvements to the existing content: Better spacing and padding Stronger visual hierarchy Cleaner typography Improved readability More balanced section flow Subtle warm accent color (soft orange) for highlights or section markers 3. High‑Impact “Wow Effect” The refreshed homepage should feel: Modern Clean Professionally designed Easy to scan Visually engaging Cohesive and consistent This is the core deliverable. 4. Rebuild the Top Sections (Most Important) The following two sections must be significantly modernized: Shareholder Resources & Information Latest Updates & Analysis These are the heart of the homepage and must look noticeably improved. 5. Add Four Content Buckets (Template Only) Create four empty Kadence Blocks sections (I will populate them later): Movement Updates Governance Violations Financial & Legal Analysis Urgent Alerts These must be clean, balanced, and visually consistent. 6. “As Seen On” Section (Smaller + Higher Placement) Create a small, subtle, 3‑column credibility section near the top of the page with thumbnails + links: AMNY NY Post EV Grieve This section should be compact, visually appealing, and easy to click. 7. Restore Main Headline The homepage must include the identity headline: “The Only Independent Communication Channel for Village View Shareholders” 8. Equal‑Height Content Boxes Ensure the two main boxes (Latest Updates + Upcoming Events) always remain equal height. 9. Future‑Proof Placeholders Add clean placeholder areas for: A future Forum section/button A future Polling & Surveys section These should fit naturally into the layout without disrupting flow. 10. Deliver Draft on Staging First You will work on a staging site and produce a draft version for review before anything goes live.
