New Brighton Online
I was given the privilege of full control of New Brighton Online’s relaunch as the project manager. The previous website was a community directory, and was totally overhauled, to serve as a destination website to promote the New Brighton area.
A versatile identity
New Brighton is unique melting pot of stunning landscapes, beautiful wildlife, and incredible things to do, but it’s also littered with empty quake stricken buildings and filled with world class street art. New Brighton Online needed a visual identity that could adapt to all the faces of its personality.
A website & brand that can change & grow with its community
With hundreds of new homes being built, and big commercial and council development in the pipelines, New Brighton is a seaside village in a pivotal time in its history.
It was important to promote the positives in the area while leaving space for what New Brighton might become in the future.
High quality video
I worked with the community to find what makes New Brighton unique and pulled a talented team together to tell real stories about real people and places
