  • Significantly improve the website load to to improve the experience of visitors and college staff managing the website
  • Integrate with KAMAR student management system with login links and syncing of calendar events

Our strategy

We created a website using a modern technology stack including events management with a look and feel to reflect the brochure design by HotHouse. It was important that the website was natively mobile responsive.

Key features of the website design:

  • Creating a new look, feel and colour scheme for the website matching the brochure design for this year, while thinking what the implications would be for next years design
  • Incorporate various design elements from the brochure to ensure a continuity between the brochure and the website
  • Set up an events management system with customised layouts
  • Create banners for events based on categories, taxonomies and tags
  • Create templates for internal pages
  • Create global modules that can be reused within the site to maintain the consistency of design elements
