The decision-making is decentralized. The brand layers are nested: system brand, campus brand, school brand, department brand, and sometimes lab brand. The accessibility requirements are stricter than baseline WCAG. The procurement processes are unique. And the audiences are extraordinarily diverse, including prospective students, current students, faculty, staff, alumni, donors, research partners, policy makers, and the public. - [accessibility](https://www.project6.com/accessibility): At Project6 Design, accessibility is a fundamental part of our design and development process. We believe that every user — regardless of ability — deserves equal access to digital experiences. Our team integrates accessibility best practices into every stage of our work, from information architecture and design to development and testing. - [testimonials from nonprofit & foundation clients](https://www.project6.com/design-for-foundations-nonprofits/testimonials-from-foundation-nonprofit-clients) - [Testimonials from Higher-Ed Clients](https://www.project6.com/design-for-colleges-and-universities/testimonials-from-higher-ed-clients) - [Branding, Print, and Website Design for Nonprofits + Foundations](https://www.project6.com/branding-print-and-website-design-for-nonprofits-and-foundations) - [Annual Report Design](https://www.project6.com/print-design/annual-reports): annual report FAQ How Should I Structure our Foundation's Annual Report?

Good question! This starts with a thorough technical review. We use Siteimprove, Wave, and ANDI tools to test the site for various infractions with a target of WCAG 2.x level AA. Do You Work on Smaller Projects, or Just Large Scale Efforts? Our team is best suited for projects that are 5 to 6+ months (or more) in duration. Typically, this means the projects of larger size do fit the team best. However, once we establish our working relationship and create the brand direction, smaller projects a definitely possible to add over time. What Does the Team Look Like for Our Project? The team size and make up varies based on the client, schedule, and needs. For every project, the minimum team would be the Director of Strategy / Project Manager, Creative Director, and Designer. If the website is being rebuilt, we'd include the Senior Web Architect, Developer, and UI/UX Designer. - [website design & development services](https://www.project6.com/website-design): Planning a website redesign for a university, foundation, or public agency often raises important questions about accessibility, CMS platforms, cost, timelines, and long-term management.

CAT and its publisher Two Lines Press had outgrown a single shared website. Their audiences and goals differ: CAT spans education, events, community, advocacy, and fundraising, while Two Lines Press is a literary publishing brand. Separating them into two connected sites let each communicate its purpose clearly while staying part of one mission, and gave CAT a dedicated platform for its capital campaign. How does the new website support CAT's $17 million capital campaign? The campaign is CAT's own initiative and was already underway as the new sites were built. The redesigned CAT site gives that campaign a clear public home: it tells the story of the planned literary and cultural center, explains what donations fund, and routes supporters to give. Separating Two Lines Press removed competing messaging so CAT's mission and campaign story take center stage at a pivotal moment for the organization. What is the new literary and cultural center in San Francisco? It's CAT's first permanent home: a three-story, 7,400-square-foot historic building on Commercial Street in downtown San Francisco, originally built in 1908. Designed with Jensen Architects and planned to open in 2027, it will include an event space with livestreaming, the West Coast's only bookstore devoted exclusively to translated literature, educational programming, and shared resources for the wider Bay Area literary community. What platforms are the redesigned CAT and Two Lines Press websites built on? Both sites are built on WordPress, which gives CAT's team a flexible, easy-to-manage content platform for events, education, publishing, and campaign updates, and lets Two Lines Press run its own publishing-focused site independently. Project6 provides WordPress design and development for nonprofits and foundations. How does splitting a parent brand and a sub-brand into separate sites help a nonprofit? When one organization runs distinct programs or a publishing imprint, a single site often forces unrelated audiences through the same navigation and dilutes each message. Splitting into connected sites clarifies brand architecture, lets each brand speak directly to its audience, improves the user journey, and creates room for each entity to grow without losing the connection to the parent mission. How long has the Center for the Art of Translation operated without a permanent home? 26 years. CAT has championed literary translation through Two Lines Press, Poetry Inside Out, and hundreds of public events without a space of its own. The new center, targeted to open in 2027, will be its first permanent home. - [LWA](https://www.project6.com/work/brand-identity-sf-bay-area-environmental-firm) - [Glaucoma Research Foundation](https://www.project6.com/work/local-foundation-website-annual-report-design) - [Maxwell/Hanrahan Foundation](https://www.project6.com/work/foundation-craft-innovation-web-redesign) - [Ava Community Energy](https://www.project6.com/work/bay-area-energy-provider-website-redesign) - [Beere & Purves](https://www.project6.com/work/boutique-general-agency-brand-identity-case-study) - [Broadcom](https://www.project6.com/work/environmental-social-governance-esg-report-print-design) - [Stanford University Faculty Staff Housing](https://www.project6.com/work/stanford-university-faculty-staff-housing) - [CASQA](https://www.project6.com/work/website-redesign-california-stormwater-resource-management-nonprofit) - [Hirsch Philanthropy Partners](https://www.project6.com/work/philanthropic-advising-firm-refreshes-brand) - [Flathead Valley Community College](https://www.project6.com/work/supporting-schools-and-students-post-pandemic) - [Hill Physicians](https://www.project6.com/work/helping-a-network-of-physicians-connect-with-patients-for-care-they-deserve) - [Family Caregiver Alliance](https://www.project6.com/work/brand-identity-print-collateral-website-design-family-caregiver-alliance) - [Zetta](https://www.project6.com/work/reimagining-of-a-cloud-computing-brand) - [Visit Union Square](https://www.project6.com/work/connecting-shoppers-in-this-iconic-san-francisco-destination) - [Silevo Solar](https://www.project6.com/work/new-brand-identity-shines-light-on-innovative-solar-startup) - [Biscoff](https://www.project6.com/work/bold-aroma-of-a-revitalized-brand) - [Save The Redwoods League](https://www.project6.com/work/updated-collateral-supports-san-francisco-nonprofit-to-protect-restore-redwoods) - [Presidio Classics](https://www.project6.com/work/creating-natural-luxury-home-textiles-brand-brings-warmth-to-san-francisco) - [National Sleep Foundation](https://www.project6.com/work/global-voice-for-sleep-health-updates-platform-to-reach-mobile-audience) - [Global Philanthropy Forum](https://www.project6.com/work/advancing-international-causes-through-philanthropists-and-social-investors) - [Crossfit Games](https://www.project6.com/work/crossfit-games-searches-for-the-worlds-fittest-athlete) - [Career Girls](https://www.project6.com/work/closing-the-imagination-gap-empowerment-brand-brings-careers-within-reach) - [Belvedere Tiburon Library](https://www.project6.com/work/new-brand-galvanizes-community-for-belvedere-tiburon) - [AUL](https://www.project6.com/work/updated-brand-drives-new-life-into-aging-automobile-company) - [Cahill Contractors](https://www.project6.com/work/building-new-brand-for-san-francisco-construction-giant) - [Hertz Foundation](https://www.project6.com/work/empowering-innovators-in-science-and-technology-to-pursue-the-boldest-ideas) - [ACEs Aware](https://www.project6.com/work/branding-california-surgeon-generals-initiative-to-support-screening-for-aces) ## News - [Why UC and CSU Extension Websites Need to Drive Enrollment, Not Just Inform](https://www.project6.com/insights/why-uc-and-csu-extension-websites-must-drive-enrollment): An extension website often has to serve as the central digital hub for a wide range of offerings: degree programs, certificates, open university options, seasonal sessions, workforce development, international programs, partner programs, events, and inquiry pathways. That makes the site part marketing platform, part service portal, and part operational content system. - [How to Build a Unified Brand Across University Departments](https://www.project6.com/insights/unified-brand-higher-ed): No one sets out to create an inconsistent brand. The problem typically grows organically over time. A new academic program launches and needs a website quickly. A research institute gets a grant and builds a microsite to showcase its work. The admissions office for the law school has different needs than the one for the undergraduate college. Each of these decisions makes sense in isolation, but without a unifying framework, the result is a digital ecosystem where every entity speaks a slightly different visual language. - [How to Write an RFP for a Website Redesign: A Nonprofit’s Step-by-Step Guide](https://www.project6.com/insights/how-to-write-an-rfp-for-website-redesign): Your website does not exist in a vacuum. It is part of a complex ecosystem of tools, including your Content Management System (CMS), your Customer Relationship Management (CRM) database, and your donation processing platforms. One of the most helpful things you can do in an RFP is to be transparent about this technology stack and its current state. - [Why Your University Website Is Losing Prospective Students (And How to Fix It)](https://www.project6.com/insights/why-your-university-website-loses-students-how-to-fix-it): For today’s prospective students, your website is your university. They expect a seamless, intuitive digital experience that mirrors the best consumer apps they use every day. When they encounter a site that’s slow, cluttered, and difficult to navigate, they don’t just get frustrated—they make a judgment about the institution itself. An outdated website signals an outdated university. A site that’s hard to use suggests a bureaucracy that will be hard to deal with as a student. - [Signs It’s Time for a Brand Refresh (And How to Do It Without Losing Your Donors)](https://www.project6.com/insights/refresh-your-brand-without-losing-donors): Nonprofits are built to serve, not to self-promote. Resources are rightly focused on programs and impact, leaving little time or budget for brand management. Over years or even decades, a gap inevitably forms between the organization’s internal reality and its external perception. A global child sponsorship organization realizes its website still reflects a model it’s trying to move away from. A performing arts presenter realizes its last major rebrand was 20 years ago, before a new generation of audiences emerged. A local community foundation approaching its centennial looks at its logo and sees a reflection of a past era, not its future. - [One School, One Website: The Case for Consolidating Your Department Sites](https://www.project6.com/insights/consolidating-edu-department-sites): This problem is rarely intentional. It's the natural result of decentralized growth. A business school, a public policy center, and the provost's office all have distinct communication needs and, often, separate budgets. In the absence of a central digital strategy or a flexible-enough platform, the path of least resistance is to build something new. One real-world university we've seen was running its undergraduate and graduate business programs on two entirely separate domains. Another was managing its main site, president's office, and provost's office on three different platforms. This digital sprawl is a sign of success—your institution is growing—but it comes with significant hidden costs. - [2025 Annual Report Design for the Glaucoma Research Foundation](https://www.project6.com/insights/annual-report-design-glaucoma-research-foundation): As part of our ongoing design work for nonprofits and foundations, this year’s annual report design highlights major milestones, including: - [OMIC Reframes Its Digital Presence in Healthcare with a Modern, Member-First Website](https://www.project6.com/insights/ophthalmic-org-healthcare-redesign): For years, the Ophthalmic Mutual Insurance Company (OMIC) has been a trusted resource in healthcare for ophthalmologists, offering everything from risk management seminars to articles and required forms. But although the organization's resources were first-rate, its web presence wasn't keeping up. The previous website wasn't mobile-responsive, difficult to update, and lacked a unifying brand presence. Worse, some of OMIC's premium content was accessible to the public—diminishing its value to insured members. - [Project6 Design Wins Prestigious Netty Award for Ava Community Energy: Best Environmental & Sustainability Web Design](https://www.project6.com/insights/project6-wins-award-for-best-web-design): The Netty Awards are a trusted benchmark for recognizing industry leaders, global brands, and emerging disruptors across more than 100 distinct categories.

Instead of pulling up Google on desktop or mobile and typing in a search query, an increasing number of users are turning to voice-based virtual assistants to bridge the gap in their knowledge.

The Noto font was chosen for a seamless experience across English and Japanese content. While the substance of the content across the site changed little, page layouts were standardized for a simpler, cleaner display. - [Boutique SF Bay Area Construction Firm Gets High-end Branding and Website Redesign](https://www.project6.com/insights/boutique-sf-bay-area-construction-firm-gets-high-end-branding-and-website-redesign): In spite of being a relatively young company, Rylko Builders has already made a significant footprint on the Bay Area.
