Custom Content & Flexible Development

The new website features custom photography, videography, and animations to highlight their people, culture, and products. Custom content was vital to pair with the light and airy aesthetic of the new site.

Reusable components were implemented on the portfolio side of the website so it would be easy for the Design Central team to update and flex their showcase as needed.

Brand Refresh

The Design Central brand was due for a refresh. Swapping out their previous dark, muted colors for a light, neutral color palette with a bright accent color was more fitting for their energetic culture. New colors paired with the addition of a pattern as a graphic element gave the brand a contemporary, tech-forward feel. The pattern is created with shapes found in the logo and was used to create a randomized animation on the website.
