The brief

An institutional website that needed to feel as authoritative as the organisation.

Uganda Media Center is a key communications institution — their website needed to project authority, load fast on any connection, and be accessible to every visitor. The existing site was slow, hard to navigate, and didn't reflect the organisation's standing.

Institutional websites carry a different kind of pressure — every visitor expects them to work perfectly.

The process

How we got there.

01

Discovery & architecture

We mapped the information architecture around how visitors actually use the site — finding press releases, accessing media resources, and contacting the team. No unnecessary complexity.

02

Development

Built on Next.js with performance and accessibility as first-order requirements, not afterthoughts. Server-side rendering for instant page loads, semantic HTML for screen readers, and responsive design tested across every breakpoint.
