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 asked Reading Room to design and develop the Green Peter microsite to support a Blue Peter special. They liked our animated characters so much that they appeared in a whole series of on-air short films
YHA
The YHA wanted to radically change online communications to be highly competitive within the travel marketplace. We developed an online business and brand strategy that has completely transformed the general perception of their offering, and in turn dramatically boosted their commercial fortunes.
Kaplan Aspect
We created 14 regional sites as both information sources and e-commerce 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 makes use of 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. We successfully captured the historic Corney and Barrow heritage brand values and integrated them with a modern and sophisticated ecommerce experience.
National Museum of Australia
Reading Room performed an outstanding piece of consulting work for the National Museum of Australia. The museum asked us to undertake a post-implementation review of its web architecture project. We used our experience to deliver a comprehensive assessment of what they had achieved and the level of satisfaction among key stakeholders.
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 provides an inspiring online experience to match this demanding brief.
