Description:
Gloria was asked by United Educators to further refine and provide her own take on intranet site designs provided by an outside agency. Using the outside agency’s design as a starting point, Gloria developed a whole new design concept that was more personalized to the client and took into account user survey feedback.
The client wanted the new intranet site to be modern, clean and user-friendly; they sought to utilize their intranet site to help foster a sense of community online and offline, and a means of internal communication to keep their employees informed.
Gloria’s new design features custom background photography and touches of personalization.
