Request a Fresco website
Fresco, the University’s new website platform replacing Mosaic, is open for new site requests in accordance with the University’s content and governance procedure.
Why Choose Fresco?
If you’re planning a new site, Fresco is the default and preferred platform. However, Mosaic sites may still be provisioned in exceptional circumstances.
Since Mosaic is reaching end-of-life, creating your new site directly in Fresco means you can:
- avoid the time and effort of migrating content to Fresco later
- avoid having to learn two web CMS systems
- begin building and structuring your site in a new user-friendly CMS
- get comfortable working in Fresco at a time that suits you
Note: Fresco may not be suitable for everyone at this stage. Building in Fresco is likely to be more suitable for simple sites which don’t immediately require complex functionality. The platform's functionality is continually evolving (see the roadmap), and the availability of certain features could influence your launch timeline.

While the long-term request process is still being finalised, Fresco is now open to new site requests using the interim process summarised below:
