Interactive Design Project
Guide: Mr. Rupesh Vyas
This is a part of my interactive media project, where we redesign chosen interfaces.
In this project we were suppose to study a system and give solution for the problem we encounter in the process. I chose to work on the Knowledge Management Center of our institute, which is a resource of audio/video information and has over 36,000 books.
I studied in detail about the Dewey Decimal System, which is practiced to have a better understanding of the distribution of various subjects. I tried to keep the language minimal, which could reflect the language of the institute's website as well, but have an identity for itself too.

'Advance search' allows the user to filter their search the way they prefer.
There are quite a few external website links, for better reference, on the website. These web links enable the user to visit exclusive websites for research papers and other vital material. These links are presented in a pop-up box, to avoid interference in the workflow, and opens the link in a separate tab of the window.
Landing page for the search, advance search and new arrivals.
There would be minimal changes in the header, apart from that, the layout would be same more or less.
