Cancer Research UK: Race for Life
Cancer Research UK’s “Race for Life” site won the New Media Age Effectiveness Award for the Charity & Voluntary Sector. The website won because of its extraordinary success in addressing some very specific project objectives through its design, usability and interactivity
BBC: Green Peter
The BBC originally asked Reading Room to design and develop the Green Peter microsite to support a Blue Peter special. They liked our animated characters so much they appeared in a whole series of on-air short films.
YHA
The YHA wanted to radically change online communications to compete in the 21st century travel marketplace. We developed an online business and brand strategy, plus functionality including a new content management system, e-commerce and a dynamic pricing mechanism.
Kaplan Aspect
We created 14 informational and e-commerce regional sites - in as many different languages – for the leading global provider of language education, Kaplan Aspect. The multi-lingual sites, including Arabic, Japanese, Chinese and every major European language, were rolled out in just 14 weeks.
Škoda UK
Bold, original and highly distinctive, Reading Room’s design for Škoda’s new website not only looks good, but also delivers well defined business results. The site’s focus on usability and design led to a remarkable 400% increase in requests for test drives and brochures.
WSPA: Pigs of God
We devised a Flash-based, multilingual microsite for the World Society for the Protection of Animals for its campaign to call for an end to the Taiwanese Pigs of God contest, where animals have been force-fed to grotesque proportions.
The Prince of Wales
Reading Room delivered an accessible site with a contemporary look and fresh, distinctive design. The new site utilises interactive features, communicating through subscription-based content, flash games and broadband content.
Corney and Barrow
Reading Room created the new online presence for the respected global wine merchant, capturing the historic Corney and Barrow heritage brand values and successfully integrated them with a modern and sophisticated eCommerce experience.
National Museum of Australia
Our brief from the National Museum was to undertake a post-implementation review of its web architecture project – we assessed the achievements against the Museum's vision, the deliverables and the level of satisfaction of the Museum's stakeholders with the outcome.
Northwest Regional Development Agency
The aim of the NWDA’s Culture programme was to position the Northwest as the place to visit for artistic talent, inspirational galleries and top events in the British cultural calendar - the website needed to be an equally inspiring online experience.
