PROJECT OVERVIEW

Matsentralen Norge is a network of Food Banks that redistributes surplus food from food industry to non-profit organizations that help disadvantaged people.

Through their work, they help both the food industry to reduce food waste, and nonprofit organizations to help people in need. The network has 7 Food Banks that cover Norway and they collaborate with more than 300 nonprofit organizations that help us redistribute food to reach those who need it most.

THE CHALLENGE

Matsentralen is a great initiative that I am happy to be able to help in different ways. We helped them structure their internal systems and how they approach marketing and branding through various workshops. We worked thoroughly with the client from the beginning and despite their financial constraints we were able to build a new website with updated content and branding. My primary role in this project was front-end development, but I also collaborated with the team on the interaction design.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Send Flere Krydderier (“SFK”) is a catering firm and restaurant located in Copenhagen, Denmark. At its core, they are a social-economic establishment. This means that the company is supported and partially funded by the state, but they operate as any traditional company.

Their main goal is to help solve the welfare problem in Denmark, where 50% of the minorities are unemployed. SFK’s belief is that everyone has a potential, and it’s just a matter of finding out what people can achieve to maximize that potential.

SFK employs women with a minority background who cook traditional meals from their home countries, which is combined into an explosion of new tastes and dishes.

The parent organization “Indvandrer Kvindecentret” (The immigration centre of women) works for the inclusion and empowerment of socially and exposed ethnic minority women and their families.

THE CHALLENGE

The existing website is hard to navigate and as a result the company is losing revenue. This project is a redesign of Send Flere Krydderiers current website. The focus is both frontend and backend solutions with a main goal of making the website easier to use for both the client and the target group.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

The Toadpark application was created to inform the public about the unique toad spicies located at Lisjevatnet in conjunction with a larger campaign to save the toads when a large highway was built in their natural nesting habitat.

It contains information about the area surrounding the highway and how the “bridge” that goes under the road makes it possible for them to reach Lisjevatnet without the highway getting in the way.

The project was initiated by Volda University College and created for Statens Vegvesen.

An Android version was also created to cater for other devices. This version can be found at Google Play Store.

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Peikestkken is a student newspaper at the Volda University College. Their organisation is based on volunteer work and they publish 6 editions every year.

Their graphic profile went through a total rebuild in 2011, and this redesigned website is a part of that new profile. The idea for the website was to keep the layout clean and divide the different sections with colours in conjunction with the graphic style of the printed paper. This was done to keep consistency and reach the new end goal; to build a stronger brand name amongst the students and faculty.

Letting users read the printed paper online or download the PDF version was also a priority that was seen as an important functionality for the redesigned website.

The CMS system WordPress was utilized to have editors add their own articles with relative little training. The goal was for non technical writers with little experience to be able to publish articles without requiring assistance.
