Client: Nielsen Gallery
Year: 2008
Project Overview
The gallery managed its exhibitions, artist roster, publications, and available works through a series of static files. They wanted a content management system to handle the total lifecycle of their exhibitions. Baizman Design built a custom content management system based on object-oriented PHP 5 and MySQL 5.
Project Objectives
- Complete and fulfill the promise of the 2006 redesign.
- Replace the flat-file-based system with a database and content management system.
- Significantly decrease the amount of time spent on administrative upkeep.
- Increase navigability through clearer navigational elements, a well-defined relationship to related information, and pagination
- Eliminate broken or inaccurate links
