A website for one Auckland's most prestigious secondary schools.
We first did a thorough UX research to hone in on the key audiences to find out what features they wanted and were looking for the most. Then designed an UX path and UI to make the website easy to use and logical.
Website was built using Elementor visual-builder.
A museum in France, commemorating New Zealand soldiers who fought in the World War 1. Especially those involved in the liberation of a small village called Le Quesnoy (where the museum is located).
We did an extensive review of Museum websites globally and wanted to design a website that was easy to use, but also immersive with good storytelling.
Our goal was to elevate an established SaaS product with a fresh, modern look and feel. After conducting competitor reviews and UX research, we designed a new look and feel for the website.
Modernising the whole brand was also part of the job, so we came up with new colours and even suggested a few new logos (to no avail).
Unfortunately, the client took over the project when it was about 80% complete, so we didn't get the chance to fully realize our vision. On the attached, you can explore our original designs (which we had mostly built as well), before the client decided to revise most everything with their own in-house developers.
Our aim was to modernise the school's look and feel, enhance the site's structure for easier navigation, inject new energy into the brand, and make better use of engaging imagery.
