This study has investigated the decision making process in relation to how the decisions were made during the design and creation of the online collection as well as investigating the final product to understand the whole design process. This problem was undertaken through a mixed method enquiry, with both a quantitative content analysis of the interface designs and a qualitative email questionnaire. The findings outline the key visual design characteristics of cultural heritage interface design as well as establishing the level of use of best practice website and interface guidelines. Alongside this how the organisations made decisions during the creation of the resources have been identified and the effect that the decisions have had on the interface design examined.pdfen-NZOnline cultural heritage web resourcesNew Zealanddecision makingwebsite and interface designText
