Calisphere:  A Responsive Digital Object Library Website

I was the lead designer for a project where I designed a responsive website that is a gateway to digital collections from California's great libraries, archives, and museums; it houses over 400,000 images, texts, videos, and recordings.  I designed it mobile-first.  The final delivered prototypes are below.  Over 100 pages/interactions have been prototyped in Axure RP.

The final site is live.   (Don't forget to resize your browser to view all 3 views!)

Included in the wireframes are the Search Results page, Image Set page, Collection page, Institution Directory page, Responsive Universal Navigation, Mobile Navigation, as well as other mobile features. 

On July 12, 2016, Calisphere won the one of the University of California's Golden Awards for Innovation in Information Technology.
