Reimagining a historic news publication

 

The Harvard Gazette has evolved from a 19th century events bulletin into an all-digital publication today. In its latest reimagining, The Gazette was modernized into a responsive, smart, and mobile-focused site. And Gazette editors were given an expansive toolkit for creative storytelling — from gallery modules, timelines, and custom article collections to color theming and a range of home page layouts.
