Artocene

INTRODUCTION & BRIEF

Translating Artocene's rich, diverse offerings into a cohesive and user-friendly digital experience.

Artocene, a renowned therapeutic arts company, realised the need for a website revamp. As their online presence started to play an increasingly pivotal role in reaching their target audience, the shortcomings of their existing website became apparent. Their previous website did not fully encapsulate the vibrancy and dynamism of their mission. The goal? A fresh, user-friendly website design that aligns with their brand message, all built on the reliable WordPress platform. Enter WeAgile digital agency in London.

Artocene approached the WeAgile team with a clear vision: they wanted a website that was not just aesthetically pleasing but also functionally superior. The new website needed to reflect the brand’s ethos, be easy for visitors to navigate, and be built on the WordPress platform, ensuring backend usability for the Artocene team.

THE CHALLENGE

Artocene's initial website inadequately represented its dynamic portfolio. WeAgile faced the tasks of crafting a design that captivates while narrating Artocene's narrative, transitioning seamlessly to WordPress without data loss, and delivering superior UX tailored to a diverse audience.

Website Design that Reflects Brand Essence: The previous version of the website lacked the depth and allure that mirrored Artocene’s rich and vibrant portfolio. WeAgile’s team of web designers was tasked with the intricate challenge of crafting a new design. Their goal was not only to produce something visually captivating but also to construct a digital space where Artocene’s rich narrative would resonate and engage visitors.

Integration with WordPress: The transition of the website to the WordPress platform wasn’t just about a change in backend technology. It required meticulous migration of content, ensuring every piece of data was intact and accurately represented. Beyond this, there was a critical need to ensure the novel website’s features and design elements meshed seamlessly with WordPress’s native functionalities.

Ensuring User Experience (UX) Excellence: Artocene’s audience is a diverse mix that includes artists passionate about their craft, eco-enthusiasts driven by sustainable solutions, and the general public seeking to explore. Thus, creating a website interface that caters to such varied user personas, all while maintaining a streamlined and intuitive UX, was paramount for WeAgile’s mission.
