The brief was to design a website that reflected Dominic’s work letting his unique style shine onscreen. The majority of the site uses a simple theme, which allow the tiles (and wallpaper – let’s not forget that) to really come through. On pages such as the homepage where the artwork was not going to be so obvious we continued to allow Dominic’s work shine through using full screen background imagery which the site visitor could manipulate by flicking through various examples of Dominic’s completed work.

Showing off the product

The aim was to give the site visitor an all-round feel for the tiles and wallpapers on sale. We devised a product page which would allow the products to be shown off in either a single view, an installation view (showing the product in a  variety of settings) or in using the dimensions specified by the user. The latter also calculates the number of tiles or meter-age of wallpaper required to fill the area that the user has requested and ultimately adds the products to the site’s shopping basket to create the order.

The new interface reflects the new Johnson & Johnson brand styling bringing the media Centre inline with new brand guidelines. It also addresses a number of navigational improvements highlighted by the users feedback having used the previous version of the site.

Pap The Question is a unique idea that provides a private Paparazzi service to guys (or gals) who want to record themselves popping the big question to their loved one. The brand needed to convey a Paparazzi style with funky modern imagery that would appeal to the demographic of it’s potential customers and advocates. The website needed to be flexible, easy to manage and rich in features; a jewellers directory, image galleries and an online booking process. The end product is an eye catching and desirable website that is – not only good looking – but functional and easy to maintain.

The result is a site which combines on-brand design with a flexible, extensible content management system. In other words a great combination of form and function which hands SPA a fantastic tool to spearhead their online marketing activity. More than that, the website can be easily translated into any language to suit the company’s key global territories and incorporates tools such as RSS aggregation as well as automated population of company news to SPA’s social network channels.

The Giraffes have been good to us over the last two years. They’ve gained us some notoriety amongst the plethora of CSS galleries out there. One mention we had in a blog post even led to a new client and some new work. So a big thanks goes to the Design Informer for escalating that for us.

The brief was simple… make it work well, make it easy to use and make it look great!

Of course we grasped the opportunity and happily went about designing the site via a process of graphic design, HTML/Javascript prototyping and web development. The new site includes an integrated content management system allowing the update of all pages and products as well as a fully integrated online shop which slots neatly into the company’s back office systems and accounts. The site is also built with full localisation in mind so that new languages or territory sites can be added via the CMS.

The interface design carries the brand all the way from homepage to checkout and provides a consistent, rich experience.

The project involved more than just your standard brochure type build – offering serious amounts of data on clinics around the UK as well as comparison charts and several other types of content including FAQS and a blog. This is a membership site which is free to join and offers plenty to keep it’s members happy including exclusive access to post to the To Hatch community Twitter feed direct from the site using a neat social media pull-out.

The design and branding compliment the subject matter with a gender free look and feel and the site itself has already won many fans.

The online tool aims to help young children learn English and so had to be fun and fully captivate it’s audience. Once we had designed the brand and this had been approved the site design came together very quickly with a blue sky/cartoon theme. The site content is neatly furnished with old map backgrounds and drift wood to give the site and the new publication a particularly strong identity.

The site is managed via White October’s CMS ‘Contented’ and so the designs needed to be flexible and well thought through as well as in line with the CHPA’s new brand guidlines. The site design features an intuitive navigation which interacts with the CHPA branding, as well as some really well thought out templates covering content such the the CHPA’s member’s directory.

After a period of discovery and information architecture (IA) we produced around 12 template designs which have massively improved the user journey and overall appearance of the site.
