Assessment Task Case Study

Your Earth. Your Home

“Your Earth. Your Home” is a not for profit organisation that aims to

promote sustainability initiatives at a grassroots level through individual

awareness.

Their mission is to educate individuals of the importance and urgency of

change from within to bring about to change the world. They believe that

saving the world from man-made disasters should start from the individual.

They adhere in Mahatma Gandhi’s famous words, “Be the change you wish

to see in the world.”

Their brand conveys energy, growth, vitality and colour – a bright future

and they need a new website to promote brand awareness and which

encompasses all of these things.

The brief

“Your Earth. Your Home” needs a site that will act as a showcase for their

fresh and contemporary new branding. There is a lot of information which

needs to be contained within the website and structured in a simple and

accessible way. The design has to be visually engaging to its audience and

abide by the basic principles of analysis and design. The aim of site is to

encourage individuals to take action and become involved.

As a charitable organisation, “Your Earth. Your Home” wants users to join

online, book events and donate through their website. They also need an

area where they can sell unique gifts designed to encourage further

support.

The website also collects information from users via the “Subscribe” page

i.e. email addresses and demographic data to be collected, stored and

exported for use by the company for direct marketing projects.
