Redesigned homepage with engaging animations

The homepage redesign brought RISD's creative spirit to life. Dynamic animations highlighted the vibrancy of their community, making the site engaging and easy to navigate.

Simplifying the student hub for easier access

The student hub needed to be a seamless resource center. We refined its design for easy navigation, ensuring students could quickly find what they needed without unnecessary complexity.

We built a design system

We began by creating a design system that would unify RISD's digital experience. Every element was crafted for consistency and scalability, laying a strong foundation for the site's growth.

Showcasing faculty expertise with personalized profiles

Faculty profiles were designed to showcase their expertise and creative work. Each page was a mini portfolio, allowing professors to shine while maintaining a cohesive look.

The redesign paid off with a W3 Gold Award. It was an honor to create something that resonated with RISD’s community and set a new standard for their digital presence.
