Web Guidelines for Marymoor Museum
This document addresses many of the relevant issues that you encounter during the planning, designing and maintenance phases of an initial Web site. Many sites on the Internet today lack a coherent design, which is due, in part, to the newness of the Web as a communications tool. Over time, however, Web sites will increasingly follow the same artistic, typographical and editorial conventions used in other established media, such as print.

Produced as a Web site guideline for Marymoor Museum, this document serves as a case study for how one non-profit organization approached the Web.
