About.

Akasia Edar was founded by people who have been in the industry for more than a decade. As one of its primary brand development agencies, we teamed up to help it reach new heights. We were bringing its brand to date with fresh visual standards, and targeting a business audience, that are looking to strengthen their branding via corporate products.

Goals.

We researched its current market, developed its future ambition, and created a strategy to build on its standing and attract a new audience. We felt that we could best achieve our goals by designing an immersive prototype that showcased how it could grow and elevate its current digital platform.

Some of our work may never be implemented due to ongoing changes at Akasia Edar, but our creative concepts and strategic insights have been applied to the recent site updates.

Solutions.

Akasia Edar now has a fully-integrated commerce platform that pairs frictionless shopping & browsing with immersive storytelling to deliver experience, increase conversion, and drive consumer loyalty.

Their re-designed, mobile-first digital experience is leading consumers to convert at a higher rate.

The new Akasia Edar website is clean, modern, and reflects the high level of professional experience that clients can expect from working with their company. The new design evokes pride in their work & products. The new projects area provides a more engaging testament to their credibility while driving SEO goals.

Before we do anything, we listen.

That means looking at business challenges from every angle. How will success be measured, what are the business goals behind the project, and what does the digital ecosystem look like today?

Through workshops, interviews and independent research, we’ll help shape an approach that works for each unique client.

Site features.

User experience – UX, for short – is how a person feels when interacting with a digital product. UX encompasses a lot of factors, some that are controllable by designers and developers and some that are environmental or just user preference. These factors include usability, accessibility, performance, design/aesthetics, utility, ergonomics, overall human interaction and marketing.

User experience is key for small and start-up businesses as well because the site is their first impression to users. Here are some of the features that we’ve build for SeriGreen’s website, to further enhance the user experience.
