Overview

Field Radio broadcasts from a converted dairy on the edge of town. Its old website buried the live stream three clicks deep.

(02)

Put the live broadcast first, make the schedule readable on a phone, and give dozens of volunteer presenters a page they are proud of.

(03)

The interface is built like a newspaper front page — a live banner, a typographic schedule and presenter pages that read like magazine profiles.

“It feels like our station, not like a template.”

Sam Okafor, station manager (fictional)

Live listening from mobile doubled in the first month after launch.
