Case studies

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.

Standard Business Reporting

Reading Room delivered a revamped website to support the Federal Government's ambitious $200 million Standard Business Reporting project. The SBR project aims to dramatically cut red tape by automating the way businesses file their financial paperwork. The website features a new design, an improved information architecture and enhanced content including video. At the back end is the user friendly Sitecore content management system.

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.

National Archives of Australia

The National Archives of Australia asked Reading Room to implement the enterprise level Content Management System Tridion and integrate this with the NAA Records and Documents Management System, TRIM context. Information architecture, page design and content layout was also analyzed and restyled with careful focus on the end user and attention to detail and with adherence to standards compliance, usability and accessibility.

UNHCR and Ben Affleck's 'Gimme Shelter' appeal

To support UNHCR and Ben Affleck launching the 'Gimme Shelter' appeal, Reading Room created a high-impact online campaign including e-mails, display advertising, search engine marketing and a campaign website centred on driving awareness and engagement. Less than one month after the launch the campaign had generated over $20,000 in donations for the campaign which will continue to run throughout 2009.

VicUrban

Reading Room consulted with residents, stakeholders and local workers and then built a site that is able to evolve, expand and develop into the future to meet the needs of its users. The site includes features that enable members of the local community to submit user generated content and take advantage a powerful personalisation functions. The site has had a very high participation rate from both the local businesses and residents.

The Benevolent Society

In consultation with Benevolent Society staff Reading Room conducted a series of user group interviews and consultation sessions that enabled us to create a website structure that more accurately addressed the concerns and needs of a wide user community. We developed a bespoke CMS and also worked with The Benevolent Society's branding agency to make the site consistent with their brand identity. The website has become an extremely well functioning tool and has been positively received by the Benevolent Society community.

WWF UK

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.

NSW Commission for Children & Young People

The NSW Commission for Children and Young People asked Reading Room to redesign its site with improved information architecture to cater for a wide audience from children to government decision-makers. The new site is simple, colourful and meets high levels of usability and accessibility. Features of the new site include a closed discussion forum, online booking of meeting rooms, online purchases of various publications, a flash-based games/activities section in addition to content manageable pages.
