Project 2RMIT Capitol Theatre Website Re-design2024
Designed in 1924 by Marion Mahoney Griffin and Walter Burley Griffin, The Capitol is an iconic multi-use venue that has hosted everything from live performances to film screenings, and major cultural festivals like The Melbourne Comedy and Writers Festivals. The task was to redesign The Capitol's website to reflect its rich history while creating a seamless, user-friendly experience for a diverse audience.

The re-designed website balances sophistication with simplicity, prioritizing clarity to ensure easy navigation across devices. The design includes a program calendar, ticketing, external bookings, and a detailed history section, showcasing 100 years of The Capitol through a timeline and archive. I also integrated fundraising efforts, including selling plaques and seats for the famous Wurlitzer organ restoration, alongside essential venue details like seating plans, accessibility, and partnerships with affiliated venues.

In addition to the website, my team created four 16:9 portrait foyer screens promoting all future events, ensuring cohesive branding both online and in-person. The result is a platform that honors The Capitol’s architectural legacy while meeting the needs of modern audiences.
