The city of Marion has launched a new website after an 18-month design process with Marion Design Co. and Indiana Wesleyan University. The city says the new site will allow officials to update content without using a third party, and will be easier to use.

The completed site follows a lengthy branding effort conducted by a group of IWU students that began in the summer of 2016, while the site’s features and function comes from another group representing Marion Design. The city says, in addition to connecting to information, the goal of the new site was to help users stay informed and complete day-to-day actions.

Marion Design Co. is a community-based design studio that includes volunteer and professional designers, some of which are students and professors at IWU.
