As the lead of the website development project, as part of i-Publishing Consultants, we worked closely with the PKF team and the designers to understand what they were trying to achieve with the rebrand and how best this could be integrated into the site.

From the outset it was clear they wanted a quicker more dynamic website, working smoothly on desktop and mobile devices. The site would continue to use the open source system WordPress, but we chose to build a block theme, utilising the latest WordPress functionality. These themes are built for the newest features coming to WordPress that allow you to edit and customise all parts of your site.

The new website uses the Gutenberg editor and it’s powerful page builder, with blocks and patterns easily accessible on the backend, ready to be dropped into the page, edited and/or dragged into position. We created a number of patterns that allowed PKF to add banners, differing headers, column content, a variety of video styles, slideshows and more.

The end result is a fast, responsive website, utilising the refreshed brand identity, giving PKF Littlejohn an agile page building experience and their customers an exciting, content rich environment to discover their services and product offerings.

You can see the full list included with this package on the above link but in brief this allows you to choose from one of our pre-existing website designs, which we take and customise to your branding e.g. logo, colours, fonts, imagery and text. The designs are responsive/mobile ready, include 5-10 pages and an SSL certificate for security.

Using one of our pre-designed templates businesses can get to market quickly, gain customers and get on with day-to-day business. You’re not held back by constantly telling customers your website is coming soon and please check back soon for more info! The Nextpath website and email was up and running with a matter of days.

We also designed the Nextpath logo in good time for the business launch:

We helped the business get online quickly and continue to manage the website and email system with on-going updates and support, that comes with the website package.

Testimonial

“Richard has been most helpful in establishing and enhancing our online presence and branding. He created a visually appealing website for Nextpath, and implemented a number of customised features to improve its functionality, with great appreciation for the urgency at which this needed to happen. An example of this is the Careers Page, which Richard adapted to meet the needs of our company. Richard also looked after the graphic design of our company logo and stationary and again achieved designs that are visually appealing and separate us from the crowd. Summarising, Richard delivered an excellent product and service, meeting the brief, and we would highly recommend his work.”

Part of this redesign was a small design iteration of their logo, replacing the sun icon with the standard letter ‘o’, whilst also beefing up the colour scheme:

Before

After

The new web design incorporates a lot more movement and animation giving the site more life and a better user experience. We also had to find a way to highlight their many service offerings in a simple but effective way, something we achieved with the use of icons near the top of the homepage:

Platform 365 don’t have a dedicated sales team and so needed a way to capture new business leads quick and easily. We decided to put a simple form directly into the homepage to save users time and to capture vital data immediately:

To promote their most in-demand content we created a 3 column area to catch the users attention and drive them to the content from across the site:

The redesign has proved a great success with positive feedback from their customers.

“We’ve worked with Richard and his team for over 10 years, due to their reliable and professional approach to their work plus innovative design eye. The recent redesign of our website was to coincide with an office move and increase in our service levels to our clients. This meant the new design was going to be crucial in focusing our marketing to current and future clients.

 

Richard worked closely with us and was quick to grasp what we were trying to achieve. The new design is dynamic and eye catching, whilst at the same time clean and uncluttered, allowing our key services to be brought to the fore.

 

We’ve had nothing but compliments from customers on the new website redesign. The site really does a great job in promoting our services and we can’t recommend Richard and all those at Creative Sketch highly enough.“

Lesley already had a logo but needed branding and web design services to highlight her Colonic Hydrotherapy and Nutritional therapy treatments, based out of two clinics in the heart of Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.

We decided to go with WordPress as the base system, which allows for quick and easy editing for website admins. On top of this we designed a fully responsive theme that uses some beautiful photography of a dandelion, along with complimentary colours to the supplied logo.

“Creative Sketch have been fantastic throughout. They really listened and understood what I wanted. They’re highly talented and knowledgeable, very responsive and efficient, and a really friendly service to boot! I’m so happy with my new website and can’t recommend Creative Sketch highly enough.”
Lesley Painter, owner – Dandelion Nutrition & Health

All the best with your new business Lesley, I’ve already heard good things from my partner, who visited you for colonic hydrotherapy and thought the treatment was of great benefit.
