Case Study Example: The Action House THE BRIEF Wayne was recommended to us by Jessica McDonough from Optic Jam (a designer we have worked with on several projects). He had a website design of his own creation which he wanted built to the exact specification. Wayne had a few specific requirements, including a feature where once an embedded video had finished playing, the pop-up video player should close. THE APPROACH We took Wayne's provided page designs (including a specific design for the mobile layout) and created the website to match these exactly. A custom JavaScript was created to close finished videos, which are all hosted on Wayne's Vimeo account. THE RESULTS Wayne was incredibly pleased with the result, with all the required design and feature elements handled as requested. We can't take credit for any of the design or content on this project, however it was great to have demonstrated our ability to create any website design as required, even when it isn't one we've created ourselves.

Case Study Example: Harmony Accounting Limited THE BRIEF Samantha was recommended to us by Rebecca Watson, who was already working on a full brand design package for Sam's business - Harmony Accounting Limited. Sam wanted a new website for her business, to better reflect her approach and her overall brand and business style, all aligned with her ideal client. THE APPROACH Working with Hannah Gibson, Sam took the copywriting guidance and created a draft of the text for all of her website pages. Hannah then provided a proofreading and core edit of the content, before presenting this to us to work on the website design itself. Being very familiar with Sam's business and brand, Rebecca created the custom website design for Sam, with only a few small tweaks needed after feedback. THE RESULTS The finished website presents Sam's business in a personal, friendly, and relaxing style. Hannah's guidance on the copywriting has ensured that the written content of the website is focused on the reader and not the business owner. Overall, the final website blends visuals and words to present Sam's business and services in a beautiful, yet easily navigated website. Finished website: https://lnkd.in/ecMrrZTz

Case Study Example: Great Corby School THE BRIEF Great Corby School asked us to design and build a new website, and were looking for something unique and original, to make sure it felt like a true reflection of what it is like to attend the school as a pupil. They provided some examples of other school websites they liked, and after seeing our case studies had several websites we'd created that had similar styles and design features, they knew we would be able to create something amazing for them. THE APPROACH As school websites can be large and need a lot of information presented in diverse ways, we spent time initially to determine the best menu structure, and understand what pages and sections would be required. Taking a stunning mosaic from the school office as inspiration for the design, Maxine worked with the text content from the school, and our planned page layout requirements, to design key website pages. THE RESULTS The final website pulls together all of the requirements we were initially given - simple navigation, clear access on the home page to key website pages like the calendar, and a design that looks friendly, yet professional. A range of core features allow the school to easily update the news section, upload documents to the policies page (including automatic generation of the document thumbnails) and edit page content as required. At the time of launch a few pages were still to be populated as the school were super-keen to move away from their previous provision. Overall, this was a radical overhaul, with the new website creating a welcoming and visually stunning online presence for the school. Finished website: https://lnkd.in/dCmi3DBc

Case Study Example: The Curious Tavern THE BRIEF As a new business, Carl asked us to create an e-commerce website for online sales of LARP and related products and accessories. Logo and branding were already created, and Carl supplied a selection of images for us to work with. THE APPROACH Rebecca worked Carl's copy and imagery into a custom website design, which provides a clear introduction and call-to-action to guide visitors to the online shop. The home page contains quick icon-based links to the core shop categories, for easy access to products. THE RESULTS The finished website presents a strong visual aesthetic that links well to the LARP (live action roleplay) products. A pop-up on entry prompts visitors to confirm their age, and to accept that the website contains products which are only suitable to those over the age of 18. Anyone not accepting the age confirmation is directed away from the website. Finished website: https://lnkd.in/g7f_tKMK

Case Study Example: Check My Legal Fees THE BRIEF Check My Legal Fees have been a client of ours since 2018. It has been a pleasure to manage their website since then, and to be asked to raise their profile further as their business has continued to grow. Looking for a complete refresh, and copywriting support to really focus on their purpose and ideal client, they wanted their website to truly reflect their development and how they help people. THE APPROACH Mark from Check My Legal Fees worked directly with Hannah Gibson, who took the time to really dive into the business, brand, and ideal client. As a testament to how well Hannah writes, the initial copy draft was accepted without any factual changes at all, and allowed us to the move to the new design with Maxine. THE RESULTS As with the copy, we had no revisions at all on the website page designs, and moved to build quickly. Working from a backup of the previous website, we applied the new bespoke design, whilst being able to easily retain all existing blog/news content, and the scripts which handle the pop-up chat. The new website clearly and professionally presents what the business does, and how the client can gain and benefit from working with them. Focused call-to-action points throughout guide visitors to the right section of the website, and move them to the enquiry form to progress their claim. Finished website: https://lnkd.in/e8g_QxjP

Case Study Example: Keystone Knowledge v2 THE BRIEF Build on the original Keystone Knowledge website design which we created in 2021, to reflect the solidified approach and range of services now offered as the business has grown and developed. We were honoured to have the opportunity to work with them again on this project! THE APPROACH Working again with Maxine from Unicorn Creative, we revisited the original design to create something new, yet still in keeping with the imagery and style that website used. THE RESULTS The updated website brings more content and a much wider range of features to all sections of the site. Working from a backup of the original website, we easily retained all blog content, without any need to consider any complex import or export routines. This project had a very tight timescale, asking for the project to be complete within 4 weeks from starting. The website was delivered efficiently, and was live as soon as all final content edits were completed and approved, with redirects put in place for any old URL structures, reducing the likelihood of visitors and search engines finding errors.

Case Study Example: BBO My Future THE BRIEF One of our existing clients from Cumbria CVS were undergoing a change in focus and brand, becoming BBO My Future - this change in branding and offer required a new website presence, and they asked us to help them create it. THE APPROACH We worked closely with Cumbria CVS staff to determine the ideal pages and website structure required to address what they needed to provide to their customers and website users. From there, we worked with Rebecca Watson to create a beautiful and friendly website design, taking inspiration from their new logo and colour scheme. THE RESULTS The finished website brings all of our work together, implementing some new features vs. the old website - these features include a new calendar for events, a re-arrangement of the blog content into a more accessible structure, and a dynamic Google Translate solution to support access by the wide range of communities who form part of BBO My Future's client base. A small amount of SEO work was also undertaken post-build, to ensure the website could be found by name (BBO My Future) in their target regions. Finished website: https://lnkd.in/es95wtR5
