Description: Project Summary The Heart Center of North Texas (HCNTX) is a leading provider of cardiovascular medicine in North Texas. It was time for the HCNTX to take its first step on to the Web - this website is not only brand new but it is also the first website for HCNTX in the practice's 30+ year history. Working with an established and prominent practice gave Interaria the opportunity to establish strong and cohesive identity design that engages the audience with respect, positive confidence and consistency. The website's brand identity is established on HCNTX logo color red which we opted to use as a brighter and stronger hue. The red identity elements were then integrated with medical blue tones along with silver gradients, building up a brand position of an engaging, professional, experienced and modern practice. The imagery gently follows and builds up on the heart theme. Close-up visuals of nature, natural elements and human faces include and invite by setting an open and respectful tone. Interaria also wanted to make sure that the site provides a platform for future growth of the content and structure, and that the site can become a true interaction point between the service provider and patients. The majority of the image, document and text content on the website is data driven by Interaria's PHP/MySQL based CMS code and solution. The administrator of the website has the freedom to login to a special admin area and change banner photos via a simple image upload system. Likewise most page text content can be edited via the CMS without any HTML or other coding skills. ---------- Project in Detail BRAND MESSAGING STRATEGY • Position HCNTX as a leading cardiovascular center in North Texas. • Communicate a consistent identity tone of a high-end, modern medical practice. • Establish a significant placement of the center's building and location for local recognition. • Provide a significant resource for medical treatment information on cardiovascular disease. • Mesh in a positive, friendly, respectful, non-confrontational and discreet feel.
