Case studies

Natural History Museum - Nature Plus

Empowering the public to get involved in science and discovery of the natural world, the Natural History Museum have joined up the physical experience of visiting the new Darwin Centre and the virtual experience online. Visitors, after scanning their unique barcodes at artefacts they like, then use the barcode number to log in to their own personalised web pages, full of the content relevant to what they’re interested in, encouraging exploration and discovery. Nature Plus encourages engagement with science and helps build ongoing relationships between the site’s visitors and the museum. 

UNHCR Emergency Response Team

To strengthen the organisations engagement with existing donors and attract broader groups of supporters, Reading Room created an online identity for UNHCR Emergency Response Team that reflects the crisis-orientated, efficient, fast paced, involved nature of their work. Their new digital offering steers users on a journey from interest to action, transforming site visitors into advocates by giving UNHCR the means for a robust, online support community.

Queensland Museum

Queensland Museum cares for more than a million items and specimens in collections that tell the changing story of Queensland. We worked with the museum to give their online identity a brand new creative and consistent look and feel across all their various online portals to strengthen brand identity and promote the museum. We streamlined both the workflow for staff and improved the learning potential for visitors, whilst encouraging the loaning and purchasing of specimens and products to increase revenue.

University of Nottingham

Having grown organically into hundreds of separate websites, the University of Notthingham's online identity had become outdated and inconsistent. Reading Room were appointed to overhaul their online identity with a clean design reflecting the genuinely 'green' and open feel of its campus, and a fluid navigation to meet the needs of the modern audience.

International Fairtrade Towns

To help promote and build awareness of Fairtrade in communities across the world we created a friendly and collaborative environment connecting nearly 700 Fairtrade towns in 18 countries. Available in eight languages, Fairtrade Towns’ exciting new interactive identity encourages more towns to apply for Fairtrade Town status and encourages campaigners to share ideas through forums and discussion groups.

WWF

WWF tasked Reading Room with communicating the depth of their organisation in the digital environment whilst remaining approachable and tangible. We delivered a strategy for the site based on interaction, simplicity, and focus, with a bold architectural approach and catching design, both of which highlight the diversity of WWF's offering, without alienating the organisations valuable and potential supporters.

University of Leeds - The Equality Service

The Equality Service wanted a highly accessible website with an easily updatable and extendable CMS on a restricted budget. We undertook usability testing to ensure the site worked with assistive technologies, and the result is a fresh and engaging design which guides users effortlessly to the information they need.

Australian Museum

Looking to be the first place people visit when exploring the nature and varying cultures of Australia, the Australian museum wanted to attract more visitors to the website and, ultimately, the museum. We completely overhauled their previous site to bring the Museums' wealth of information, activities and resources into the 21st century. Their new online identity attracts a worldwide audience where users are also encouraged to comment and interact, both with each other and the Museum

Sport England

In order to deliver a single, cohesive communications platform for Sport England we completely overhauled their online offering, from user research, through to a clean, professional design, intuitive information architecture and a much-needed content management solution. We ensured that the corporate site sat alongside a social media strategy which capitalises on existing social networking sites such as Bebo, Facebook and MySpace.
