zero8 web design & build

I really enjoyed building Watt & Pew's website. They have some really cool pieces of furniture and items for sale which when the imagery is strong it always makes my life easier.

The general web site design was to try and mix a modern look and feel to contrast the retro vintage pieces that Watt & Pew sell.

Lots of social integration was added via Tweets and Facebook likes as well as a 'follow us on' for both.

It was also decided to operate the site as a catalogue initially as opposed to a fully featured shopping cart.

I'm really looking forward to seeing all the new stuff being added to the site as they make room for stock...

This site's currently under development and may see the light of day.  (To be honest, I'm building it for the Mrs as a little project.)

It'll primarily be a blogging site with some nice little features. The look and feel is very clean, contemporary and easy to navigate.

The site will have social sharing functionality built in with email capture via the newsletter registration. Watch this space for updates.

Since we took it over, the i gigi website has grown considerably over the last couple of years. It's recently been updated with a fully featured shopping cart for online purchases, virtual tours of the shops, portfolios of their interior design work, new imagery and a blogging page.

The site's proven to be very popular, with numerous bloggers writing about the beautiful pieces sold in the four shops that make up i gigi . One of the owners, Zoe Ellison, was heavily involved in the whole process of developing the site - in particular the look and feel which had to reflect their unique style.

This was one of the very first websites we built and it's great to see it go through the second phase. And to get some great feedback - not only from the owners themselves but also from visitors to the site. To hear from loyal followers of the brand and know we've stayed true to its spirit and identity through the website is a massive compliment. We look forward to phase three.
