Online Library Revamp For Helmet
2020 brought an opportunity to revamp the whole concept for Helmet libraries online service portfolio. Helmet is a joint venture of all the libraries in the greater Helsinki (Helsinki, Espoo, Vantaa and Kauniainen) and is one of the most recognised and used online services in Finland. The project consisted of an extensive user study as well as branding and finally completely revamped end user experience with tested prototypes for mobile and desktop screen sizes.

Here is a presentation I did about the Helmet project for the City of Helsinki. The event was held on in June of 2020 as part of a showcase for digital projects done within the city administration.
