The Project

Enhancing user experience through cutting-edge technologies and streamlined design

The Strategy

Streamlining ecommerce with improved functionality and seamless user experience

Nottingham Lighting Centre came to us to modernise and refresh its online ecommerce store. NLC prides itself on having an extensive and high-quality product range covering all aspects of decorative lighting.

Using a combination of CMS to maximise efficiency and functionality, we designed and built a Shopify website which highlights the company's luxury stock as well as offers improvements to customer experience on both desktop and mobile.

Building a high-performance website with optimised front-end and back-end systems

Our development team collaborated closely with the client to build a website that combines performance with simplicity. For the front-end, we used Sanity, which allows easy access for both the business and external contributors. This system enables quick edits to existing content and seamless additions of new copy, providing maximum control over the website.

For the back-end, we used Headless Shopify, a powerful and easy-to-use system that lets the client manage products, create new collections, and update services effortlessly. We also integrated Shopify image optimisation and Next image optimisation.

Key solutions:

  • Easy-to-use dropdown menus with filters and categories
  • High-resolution images with fast load times
  • Accessible front-end and back-end systems
  • Integrated online forms and communication channels
  • User-friendly product pages with full specs, filters, and accessible product details

Ecommerce Web Development

Building a responsive mobile-friendly website for modern customers

Product landing page for a light fixture

While developing the new website, we prioritised ensuring that every design element and functionality was fully optimised for mobile devices to ensure that every customer is accessible and experiences the same level of online service.

We adapted all website blocks, content, imagery, and text to automatically adjust to different screen sizes and resolutions, guaranteeing that the site performs consistently well across a wide range of devices. This mobile-first approach not only improves accessibility but also enhances overall user engagement, offering a smooth, intuitive shopping experience.
