City of Miramichi

Crafting the City of Miramichi’s website was an endeavor that combined modern aesthetics with the imperative of accessibility. Our goal was to create a digital platform that reflected the city’s vibrant spirit and served its diverse population with a particular focus on simplicity for the older generation. This website, enriched with a wealth of content including a blog, contact form, and various page layouts, embodies Miramichi’s commitment to inclusivity and digital advancement.

Organizing a Wealth of Information

With the City of Miramichi bustling with events, services, and community updates, one of the primary tasks was organizing this plethora of information in a user-friendly manner. I achieved this through the creation of multiple custom post types within WordPress. This solution facilitated a structured yet flexible content management system, allowing city staff to easily update and categorize information, from municipal services to community news, ensuring residents could effortlessly access relevant and timely content.

Embracing Multilingual Accessibility

Miramichi’s diverse community necessitated a multilingual website to ensure inclusivity and accessibility for all residents. Implementing this component involved selecting and customizing the right WordPress multilingual plugins to offer seamless language switching. This not only catered to the linguistic diversity of the community but also reinforced the city’s dedication to an inclusive digital space where every resident feels valued and heard.

Crafting Engaging and Functional Design

The challenge of melding modern design with functional simplicity required a balance between aesthetic appeal and user-friendly navigation. I focused on creating unique layouts that captured the essence of Miramichi while ensuring content, especially key information, stood out. Through careful consideration of typography, color schemes, and strategic content placement, the website’s design invites exploration and engagement without overwhelming users. Full-width layouts offer immersive experiences, while sidebar options provide quick access to pertinent information, catering to a broad spectrum of user preferences and needs.
