Design for facelift scores big hit for Roger

Congratulations to IT student Roger Farrow on having his work chosen for the new website for the Houghton Regis town centre facelift. The site will act as an information portal, carrying news on the progress of the work in Bedford Square and Roger designed and produced the site himself.

The design project was set by South Beds District Council and Roger found himself up against two of his fellow students in the shortlist: Matthew Freeman and Liam Moseley. The final decision rested with the Head of ICT at South Beds District Council, Rob Wood, who found the selection process an extremely difficult one owing to the high calibre of entries. Roger’s work was chosen as it presented the best mix of information and design.

Roger is studying a Foundation Degree in Web Design and his tutors, Andrew Hill and Derek Condon, are delighted at the opportunity this gave Roger and his fellow students to gain practical experience of working on a live brief. All three students were rewarded with IT vouchers for their hard work.
