Once a Bronco, always a Bronco

Based in the heart of the world-famous Silicon Valley, Santa Clara University boasts an unusually tight-knit and well-connected alumni network. SCU graduates (a.k.a. “Broncos”) not only populate the boardrooms and executive suites of local technology powerhouses, they also hold prominent positions in a variety of corporations, government agencies, and spiritual institutions across the nation and around the world.

What an impact!

The Stanford Challenge was a five-year campaign aimed at seeking solutions to complex global problems and educating the next generation of leaders. University-wide initiatives on the environment, human health, international affairs, K–12 education, the arts, and graduate and undergraduate education let Stanford supporters change the world and change students’ lives.

A world of experience.

Keeping Score is San Francisco Symphony’s ongoing initiative to make classical music more accessible to people of all ages and musical backgrounds. Mahler: Origins and Legacy is the fifth television program and companion website in this popular series. An important site for serious Mahler fans, and a wonderful introduction for those new to the music, Mahler: Origins and Legacy takes visitors on a world-wide journey of discovery.

The very definition of user-centered design.

The Princeton Office of Finance and Treasury asked Rolling Orange to help redesign their site as one component of a broad customer service initiative.

Our research phase helped define our primary goals: make content easy to find, easier to understand, and more accurate and reliable. Smart readers will note that the design of a website will only address the first of those needs. In order for the site to be successful, it would need a serious commitment from Princeton to design not only the site, but the content and the very business processes that support their division.

This is UC Santa Cruz.
Rolling Orange worked with the team at UCSC to develop a complete Web strategy, from messaging platform to a variety of site templates for the university home page environment and beyond. Backed up by a solid marketing plan, a wealth of community input, and timely communication with key stakeholders, the new design builds on core strengths and challenges people to take a fresh look at this Central Coast landmark.

Taking alumni magazines to a new level.
Columbia online is a companion to the printed magazine, which is published quarterly and reaches an audience of more than 275,000 people, most of them alumni.

Do not enter! Teens only.
What’s the best way to communicate with teens? In their own language, of course! And that means visual language as well. We worked with the team at Salt Lake County Library Services to design a look-and-feel that would appeal to their audience and provide a long-term, extendable style.

Finding a show just got easier.
Since 1842, the New York Philharmonic has played a vital role in the musical life of our nation and the world, performing in 58 countries on five continents. To help concert-goers navigate the wide array of ticket plans, performers, and concert dates, Rolling Orange redesigned the Concerts and Tickets section with a project focus on site architecture review, redesign, content revisions, and the development of an interactive ticket finder.

Let’s go to the Kid Zone!
The folks at Salt Lake County Library Services have your child’s best interest at heart. They’ve worked hard to create a special version of the website just for kids, and asked Rolling Orange to help style the site to appeal to youngsters weaned on high-quality media.

Saving the oceans one website at a time.
People have long depended on the ocean for food and commerce, and looked to it for adventure and recreation. To preserve and protect this great resource, Stanford University, the Monterey Bay Aquarium, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI) have joined forces to create the Center for Ocean Solutions.
