Project: Hermes

How can you make centuries of history and cultural heritage accessible to modern audiences? By bringing educational resources, historical content, and interactive learning experiences online.

Hermes is a European cultural heritage and educational project designed to make classical history and learning materials more accessible to students, educators, and cultural enthusiasts.

Our role was to develop a modern, fully functional WordPress presentation website that brings the project’s educational mission to life through a user-friendly design, responsive layouts, and accessible content.

The challenge we were given

Presenting historical and educational resources online requires more than an attractive design. The website needed to organize complex information into an experience that visitors could navigate and understand with ease.

The key challenges included:

  • Organizing educational content: Presenting historical information and learning resources in a clear, accessible structure.

  • Ensuring responsive design: Making the website easy to use across desktops, tablets, and mobile devices.

  • Supporting multilingual content: Helping the project reach audiences across different European markets.

  • Optimizing website performance: Keeping pages fast and accessible despite multimedia-rich content.

  • Simplifying content management: Giving non-technical staff the ability to update educational materials independently.

What we delivered:

We developed a custom WordPress website tailored to Hermes’ educational goals and digital presence. The implementation focused on clear content presentation, accessible navigation, and a flexible structure that supports ongoing updates.
