Client: Carroll and Sons Gallery
Year: 2019
Project Overview
In recent years, Carroll and Sons, a contemporary art gallery in Boston’s South End, has refocused its business on advising and consulting. The purpose of this project is to modernize the infrastructure of both the Carroll and Sons and Boston Drawing Project websites.
Note: the existing brand identity was designed by Greenblatt-Wexler in 2008.
Project Objectives
- Enable personnel to edit the content on the website unaided by a web designer.
- Optimize the site for various screen sizes and devices (desktop, tablet, and especially mobile phone).
- Untangle the Carroll and Sons content from the Boston Drawing Project content.
- Retain the existing functionality and content on the current sites.
- Bring the sites in line with modern web standards and technologies.
- Consider additional opportunities for leveraging the web to achieve the website’s objectives.
- Promote the newer advising and consulting services.
- Communicate the influence and current activity of artists whose work has been exhibited by Carroll and Sons.
- Cater to a clientele that has largely turned to the web to seek out and acquire art.
