Website redesign to increase online engagement

Our services

Development

From front-end to back-end, our diverse team has a passionate breadth of digital expertise. And we’re also ready to jump back into a project if things need tweaking, or if you’d benefit from a little extra care, from custom theme building, to complex back-end integrations and data migrations.

UX/UI Design

Our UX/UI Design service is focused on creating intuitive and engaging digital experiences that resonate with your users. We dive deep into user research, crafting interfaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functionally robust. By balancing creativity with usability, we design layouts, navigation, and interactions that are easy to understand and a joy to use. Our design process is iterative and user-centric, ensuring that the final product is aligned with your brand's vision while meeting the needs of your target audience, ultimately enhancing user satisfaction and driving business success.

The client

Colony Bees is more than a beekeeping organisation, it’s a movement to pollinate, protect and honour the land. Through restoring wild hives, caring for bee swarms, and cultivating sanctuaries, they work in deep connection with Country to advance the culture of apiculture. Their practice blends tradition, education and innovation, with a vision to create a Centre of Apiculture, a sanctuary for learning, regeneration, and reverence for the natural world.

The brief

Colony Bees came to us with a mission: to grow their online presence and inspire more people to engage with their work. Whether it’s becoming a member, making a donation, purchasing merchandise or even installing a hive, they wanted to create more pathways for people to get involved. At its core, the goal was simple: to be seen, heard, and supported as they continue their vital work protecting pollinators and restoring balance to the land.

How we helped

To support Colony Bees' goals, we delivered a website experience that’s clear, accessible and grounded in nature:

Simplified navigation using familiar, easy-to-understand language.
Earthy, natural visual style with organic colours and wavy shapes inspired by the land.
Streamlined membership signup with a user-friendly form.
Dedicated events page to promote and track upcoming gatherings.
New education page for schools and community groups to request workshops with ease.
Improved shop and checkout experience to make supporting the movement seamless.

The result

We delivered an intuitive and engaging website experience that invites people into the world of Colony Bees. With simplified navigation, a natural and earthy design, and clear pathways to take action, like signing up for membership, booking educational workshops, exploring events or supporting the cause through their shop, the site now acts as a true extension of their mission and community.
