Description: Bluecadet worked closely with the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum to plan, design, and execute a range of products for the museum’s 40th anniversary. A new central Content Management System that integrated with existing Museum systems, including a 60,000 artifact database, created an editorial pipeline that supported a new digital suite of products. The project culminated with the launch of a new website, mobile apps for iOS and Android, and a massive 200-square-foot touch wall that allowed users to explore stories, view the collection, and save items in order to curate their visit.
