Creating plant-based snacks for more than 60 years, Back to Nature revamped its packaging and needed their website to complement the new design. They also wanted to manage the site through a new content management platform. With new boxes hitting retail shelves nationwide after the new year, Yalo had just six weeks to deliver.

Under an incredibly tight deadline, Yalo’s team launched a new site borrowing from the existing design featuring new logos, product images and nutrition panels for 70+ products. Simultaneously, as a second phase, we layered the new packaging into the site to inspire its new design.

Fortune 500 company M&T Bank is a leading financial holding company. Headquartered in Buffalo, NY with over 760 branches across the US, M&T was looking to deliver a more personal home page experience.

With current layouts being difficult to read and site navigation inaccurately displayed, users had trouble finding product detail pages or connecting with the bank. With discrete direction for the foundation of the home page program, M&T turned to Yalo to redesign the user experience from the bottom up.

Yalo’s creative team designed the new home page experience around a modular framework perfect for variable information. Images, headlines and supporting copy aligned with M&T’s newly branded voice and visual feel. Several versions of the new page were created accounting for dynamic content being pulled in from both customer type and user data. Each main customer segment received targeted content most relevant to them. Content included variations on targeted marketing, specific M&T services, community and customer stories, and tailored resources and insights.

The new brand was carried across all Struxure collateral, national ads in high-end home and shelter publications, and an immersive online experience that showcased product features and functionality.

Several interactive features create engagement with prospective customers while explaining product features and showcasing designs. With a few clicks, users can interact with the pergola systems to open, close and pivot the louvers–just as they would at home.

They wanted their brand to exude premium, quality and fresh to consumers as they continued to grow in locations across the US.
