About The Project
Travel Oregon is the state-wide tourism marketing agency for one of the most visited states, and it was our job to give them the tools to help potential visitors plan an informed and memorable trip.We had a few technical missions when building their current site:
- Create a responsive web experience of Oregon inspiration to spur visitors and excite in-state residents to get out and see the beauty which surrounds them
- Collect, store, and disseminate content from local and regional partners across the state via one central database with multiple API feeds
- Build an easy to-use content publishing platform for their growing publishing needs
- Display practical resources, such as restaurants or hotels, in context alongside inspirational storytelling in terms of both nearby and taxonomical relationships
