The Mi'kmawey Debert Cultural Centre is a native canadian historical site and archive in Nova Scotia. During my time working with them, they were in the process of a vast transformation and construction of a new cultural center.
I collaborated with the organisation as the sole designer over 12 months to provide the MDCC with a new digital direction. Their archive holds more than 20,000 records aimed to protect and educate the public on the culture of the Mi'kmaw through language, location, objects, history and practices.
The new construction of the physical center in correlation to the digital space meant that our collaboration on their portal had periods of intermediate pauses - requiring a strategy of ongoing workshops and user-testing to ensure continuity and progression.
Crafting the information architecture, wireframe prototyping and digital branding, I lead remote workshops and presentations with their senior board members from a variety of departments to help establish a consistent vision.
