The portfolio site for Isabelle Bradbury Architect, a bilingual, rich-media website, where the use of Flash animation is explored in its expressive capacity to evoke architectural impressions.

This site for the Ottawa Regional Society of Architects was totally re-designed and updated as a pro-bono project to promote public interest in architecture, as well as to provide a resource for locating professional services in Ottawa. The user interface was designed to help identify the audience group, using color coding and symbols. On-going content development is planned to make the site attractive to the general public as well as the architectural profession. A database of local architects and supporters is made available through a Directory searchable by specialties. |
