Narcissus Design
ABN: 48 356 842 457

Narcissus Design is named for the Greek Myths of Narcissus. View Our Philosophy for further information about the history of this name, and its relevance to our business.

Narcissus Design was registered as a business name in May 2006, and is run by Director Yasmine Howard - whose particular skills are in Instructional Design. Associate Angus Wallace provides Graphical Design and Usability Testing. We work both on-site our clients' offices, and our Albert Park home/office in Melbourne Australia.

We specialise in Instructional Design for eLearning and eBusiness and ebusiness.

Over the two years 2006-2009, our goal is provide contract Instructional Design work for commercial businesses and educational organisations, such as universities. This may include the areas of Compliance, Occupational Health and Safety, and Finance. Our goal for 2010 and beyond is to create new business opportunities for eLearning in niche areas such as the Arts, Education, Communication and Design. Our ongoing goal is to undertake research and development, within Higher Education and Corporate Training.

We are dedicated to:

• Ensuring our designs meet our own high expectations of quality, despite the cost or time frameworks we must work within.
• Applying contemporary and relevant theory and practices from education, software engineering, graphic design and human computer interface design, whether our projects are for corporate, small business or Higher Education.
• Fostering clients who value design, and educating clients on the potential pitfalls of following poor-quality design practices.
• Keeping abreast of the latest research and technology, through ongoing research and development.
• Ensuring that the effective navigation, usability and educational focus for user/learner is the focus of the project.

We don't follow trends... we try to create them! How can we encourage 'learners' to easily navigate the website/cd-rom, enable them to problem solve, acquire and successfully retain knowledge? That is our obsession... Quite simply, if it doesn't work for the learner, then the project has probably not been a success..."
