Overview

As part of the journey of Washington's football team transitioning to a new identity as the Washington Commanders, I was responsible for creating a digital presence that documented the history and the future of the historic team.

Timeline

Showing the History of the Team

The key piece of the Washinton Journey site was an experiential timeline that allowed users to explore the history of the Washington Football Team. The timeline was designed to be interactive and engaging, allowing users to click through different eras and learn about the team‘s history in a visually appealing way.

The interactive timeline provides two navigation options: scrolling through the eras or selecting key milestones.

The New Name

Becoming the Commanders

This website chronicled the team's transition to a new identity, balancing the excitement of a fresh beginning with respect for decades of team history. The experience celebrated the organization's legacy through interactive timelines, archival photography, and historical milestones while introducing fans to the new brand, colors, and vision. The site served as both a digital museum and a launch platform, ensuring longtime supporters felt connected to the team's past while embracing its future.

To deepen fan engagement, the platform incorporated user-generated content that invited supporters to share memories, stories, and photos from throughout the franchise's history, creating a living archive shaped by the community itself. Behind-the-scenes videos documented the creation of the new team identity—from concept development and branding decisions to uniform design and facility updates—giving fans an unprecedented look at the work behind the transformation. Together, these elements created an immersive storytelling experience that celebrated the past, documented the present, and built anticipation for the franchise's next chapter.

The Washington Football Team website was designed to be a visually engaging and interactive experience that allowed fans to explore the team’s history and learn more about the organization.

The design emphasized the teams new brand identity, incorporating the new logo, colors, and typography throughout the site with a focus on visual storytelling and user engagement.
