Let's work together
Northern Ireland Science Festival
The project
Established in 2014, NI Science Festival has grown to become the largest celebration of its kind on the island of Ireland and in its relatively short lifespan became one of the leading Science Festivals in the whole of Europe.
With an aim to keep their online presence fresh, NISF put their existing website out to tender, and after a successful application I worked closely with the team to design them a fresh new look, with a focus on their events and a goal to expand the festival into a year-round collection of events happening all across Northern Ireland.
Combining a clean, event-focused design with quirky and colourful illustrations by designer Ryan O'Reilly, I built an entirely new website and used Craft CMS to provide an easy-to-use system for managing their events. The new website was launched successfully and will continue to be given an updated look and feel with each new festival year.

Here's what they thought
"From the early stages of the development process to the finished product she was a real joy to work with."
Andrew Moore, NISF Marketing Manager
"We commissioned Grace to develop a new website for the NI Science Festival in September 2021 to reflect our needs and scope as an organisation going forward.
"From the early stages of the development process to the finished product she was a real joy to work with - listened and took on all our ideas and suggestions, continually helping us develop it to suit the needs of each individual edition of the Festival, while also working closely with the designers of our brand to make a site which is also visually appealing to visitors."
