Welcome to the Redesign Blog-Post 1


Welcome to the “unca.edu” redesign blog, intended to provide ongoing updates on the project to restructure and redesign the UNC Asheville Web presence.


Latest updates:
Web design firm: Two nationally known Web design firms presented their approaches to the proposed project on Wednesday, March 11, as a part of a competitive selection process. The chosen firm will begin working with the Web Advisory team and the staff in Communications and IT as soon as possible.
An announcement about the firm and its background and approach will be made in the next several weeks.

“Interim” Web designs: Staff from Communications and IT have been working on some improvements in design and functionality for the university’s current home page. These changes are a prelude to the full-scale redesign that will be undertaken during the next nine months. You’ll be able to see the new look soon. Check back on this page for the latest on that project.

We want to hear from you: If you have ideas or comments about the Web redesign project as it progresses, this blog is the place to post them.
