Abstract
Back in 2016, the Jazz ao Centro Clube (jack) came up with Museu Temporário de Memórias, an exhibition at the old Armazém de Fazendas, at Rua velha, where objects and stories from Coimbra’s downtown sellers were remembered – which are an important part of the city's history.This was the very first initiative of jacc to perpetuate the memories of the historical centre of the city. However, its heritage is much more than what could be shown there.
The Digital Archive of Coimbra’s Historical Center (adchc) comes to preserve all of these memories and make them available online for those who want to consult them. It also aims to foster the community contribution by uploading contents and encourage the artistic creation with the latter, providing them free and dynamically.
This dissertation is about the back-end and front-end development of the website of the Digital Archive of Coimbra’s Historical Center and the respective interface/interaction design. In addition, it is about designing its graphic identity and dissemination artifacts.
