The challenge

A little known ceremonial part of a Coronation is the creation of a Coronation Roll, which records the official proceedings. Despite this tradition dating back to 1308, a Coronation Roll has never been made publicly available. In a historic first, we were tasked with creating a digital version of the Coronation Roll from the Coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla, to bring this historic tradition to the public for the very first time.

The website needed to be graphically appealing and appropriate for royal subject matter, interactive and engaging to appeal to varied audiences, and easy to navigate due to the significant amount of text, video, photography and audio.

The solution

We carried out interviews and focus groups with members of the public and invested stakeholders to determine what approach would have the biggest impact. After we presented our findings, we created a design inspired by the rich colours and designs of the Coronation regalia, paired with the neutral, natural colouring of the official record.

The final website features the historically-accurate Coronation Roll on a single page, alongside imagery to bring the text to life. Elements of the Roll are highlighted to click-through to further information in the form of videos, photography, audio clips and more. The result is an interactive and engaging website that preserves tradition while celebrating modernity.

The challenge

The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero approached us with a clear objective: to design a website for the Energy Transition Council (ETC) that would effectively showcase its work in a simple and interactive way, all while launching in time for COP29. The site needed to communicate complex information about global energy transitions in an engaging and accessible format, ensuring it resonated with a diverse audience.

The solution

Our process began with strategic insights to understand the target audience, which informed intuitive site navigation and user journeys. We crafted a modern logo and visual identity, ensuring a cohesive brand presence throughout the site. The WordPress build was customised for functionality and scalability, allowing the site to grow alongside the ETC’s evolving needs. Ultimately, we delivered a platform that showcases the ETC’s work and engages its global audience.
