Mountsandel Brand Redesign

About

The Mountsandel Discovery and Heritage Group is a voluntary organisation dedicated to promoting the heritage of Mountsandel, Coleraine, and the River Bann corridor. Founded in 2017, it delivers educational and community projects focused on archaeology, environment, and local history. The group collaborates with schools, universities, and councils to support cultural and environmental conservation.

Contribution

In this module, I collaborated with two other peers, and I took the leadership position, dividing the task among us to ensure that our strengths were fully utilised. We each designed a comprehensive visual identity that would be used for the Mountsandel redesign. However, my logo design wasn't chosen, and therefore, the members of the organisation decided to pursue the logo and branding of one of my group members.

I was tasked to redesign the new Mountsandel website. I had no previous experience with the WordPress software and I was given five days to change the website due to a delay in the handover stage from the client. I used my knowledge and skills from designing the Community Research Collective website and coding to design a new website that included many notable features discussed by the community members, including high-resolution images, image carousel, language translator, downloadable PDF and interactive features.
