The times they are a-changing. Creative yet responsible web design and development isn't as rare as it used to be, but it's still rare...

Shackleton Centenary Expedition | www.shackletoncentenary.org/
July 2008
Erskine were contracted to work with the client’s chosen CMS (Movable Type) and rework much of the site content, but specifically we looked at incorporating the client’s “must have” visual and content elements into a new and more thoughtful redesign.
In 2008-09, the descendants of Sir Ernest Shackleton’s band of Antarctic explorers intend to follow in their ancestors’ footsteps, and recreate the 1909 Nimrod Expedition, originally intended to be the first mission to the South Pole.
The original team got to within ninety-seven miles of the Pole before being forced back: one hundred years later the team hope to reach the same point and then continue on, and in so doing, finish the business their forefathers began.
Their efforts go towards establishing a new charitable trust to be called The Shackleton Foundation, to honour the original crew and celebrate their pioneering spirit.
