PottingShed
School Website is Out for Summer
28 January 2013
We are extremely pleased to announce the launch of their new website.
Working closely with Dot Carruthers, Elizabeth College's Development Officer, and Tim Gaudion from Fuse 2 Web Design, we worked to a comprehensive brief. One of the key considerations when designing for Elizabeth College is ensuring we don't lose the heritage and nostalgia of the school, whilst positioning them as the modern college that they are.
Now in our third year of designing The Elizabethan magazine, we drew on a few styling features but kept the emphasis on creating a clean and intuitive site.
Built with a comprehensive content management system and bolting on The Elizabeth College intranet system, the site gives them a substantial internet presence with extensive 'live text' - perfect for the search engine spiders.
This project is a particular source of pride as myself (8962), Jay (8019) and Al (7830) are all Old Elizabethans ... they certainly didn't have a web presence in those days.
What's more, Dot had threatened squads for all of us if it wasn't in on time!
Big thanks to Tim, Dot and Magnus.

"Potting Shed took the time to understand the product and our purpose and created a clean, fun and fresh look which our clients comment on regularly. They then took the brand and product to the next level for us by creating our product video and website, and the storyboard and visual process that the team created really brought it to life."

These projects have contributed to a more connected team who believe in our organisation at a deep level. When your people believe in what you do and take ownership over their culture and workplace, growth is the natural outcome."
