Deep Ocean Education Project

NOAA and the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation were looking to create a collaborative website with three giants of the ocean; NOAA Ocean Exploration, Schmidt Ocean Institute, and Nautilus Live – Ocean Exploration Trust. This website seamlessly connects the resources on all three contributing partner’s sites to a collaborative educational hub; the Deep Ocean Education Project. We’re beyond proud of this design and site build.

The Design

The Gecko creative team knew the Deep Ocean Education Project website needed to be something special. With access to thousands of gorgeous photos curated by NOAA, we were off to the races. The typography and graphic elements throughout the site are both clean and compelling to highlight the stunning photography and videography from the partner organizations.

On the homepage, you will find a Netflix style slider where several featured Resources are easily digested. From there, a user can “Explore” all Resources, or add the featured ones to their own Educator Collection.

Beyond that, there is an entire page dedicated to the three magnificent vessels of the contributing partners; NOAA Ship Okeanos Explorer, E/V Nautilus, and R/V Falkor.

Gecko Designs was absolutely thrilled to work with several important leaders in science and technology and are beyond proud of the new Deep Ocean Education Project. Are you interested in crafting a stunning user experience for your clients? We’d love to help.

The decision to invest in a new, professionally-constructed website was not a casual one for my small company. The Gecko team was supportive and enthusiastic from our first interaction and throughout the duration of the project. They demonstrated the value of working with talented, committed designers to create a functional, beautiful new online home for our work. I am grateful, and recommend Gecko without reservation.

Gecko recently launched a new website for my organization (Headwaters Foundation) and they knocked it out of the park! They were receptive to our wants and needs and very responsive throughout the process. We enjoyed working with their team; they really have begun to feel like my 'communications coworkers down the hall.' I am looking forward to working with them on more projects.

Gecko was selected through a competitive process to assist Missoula Public Health in our modernization and brand redesign campaign. Their staff have been immensely helpful. They've helped guide our process toward results that are stellar. We presented our updated branding to our board and they loved it--comments were "two thumbs way up", "this is exactly what we needed", and "love it!" We will definitely look forward to working with them in the future.

Gecko Designs quickly identified and efficiently fixed a problem we were having with our website AND pointed out some other items that needed attention. Very professional and congenial. I highly recommend them.

We worked with Gecko Designs to completely revamp our website for Northern Rockies Orthopaedics. It took us over 2 years to get everything how we wanted it and all ideas for our physicians incorporated. Grace and the team at Gecko were so accommodating and patient with us. Highly recommend using them for all web design needs!
