Overview
The Rotary Club of Ann Arbor is a local chapter of Rotary International, which works with the community on a number of projects fostering quality of life, cooperation, and understanding. Wishing to update their online presence as well as member features, the Club has commissioned me to redesign the visual interface as well as migrate it to the open-source, content management platform, Drupal.
Project Goals
- Design a contemporary and standards-based visual interface that represents the vision and identity of the Rotary Club.
- Restructure the navigation and organization of the website to be more accessible and friendly.
- Migrate to the Drupal platform for better content management and to support distributed responsibilities among members.
- Allow for the weekly newsletter, The Harpoon, to be easily assembled using website content.
Status
The redesign of the website is currently in production and is expected to be launched later this year.
Tools and Methods
- XHTML and CSS
- Information Architecture
