Image

Discover how Renfrewshire Council reimagined its digital presence by applying Object-Oriented UX (OOUX) principles to build the first object-oriented local government website in Drupal. This session explores how we mapped real-world objects — like Services, Consultations, Financial Support, Topics, and Places — into a structured content model that powers the new Renfrewshire.gov.uk.
We’ll share how we:
- How we mapped and documented objects using Figma and Notion
- Why we moved beyond LocalGov Drupal’s core content types to support complex relationships
- How our full-stack design system in Storybook supports consistency and testing
- What this means for future enhancements like knowledge graphs, AI-powered search, and content retrieval.
Whether you're a Drupal developer, UX designer, or content strategist, this session will offer practical insights into applying OOUX to large-scale projects.
