Year-Over-Year
Phase 1
Prototyping
MRS Lumber had gone through a rebrand a few years back, but their website was never updated to reflect their new vision. Their old site also suffered from confusing navigation and many products weren’t included, making it extremely difficult for them to drive sales.
They partnered with us on this website redesign project to drastically improve the product catalogue, and the site’s overall usability experience. Our focus was on restructuring their content in a much more straightforward, logical way. At the same time, we wanted to expand their product content to provide much more detail for potential customers.
Phase 2
Style
Photos of BC farmers with smiling faces beam out from blue components that evoke clear skies, while softened greens provide a grounded feeling area for statistics and important facts to land. Not to be outdone, the new recipes section features mouth-watering images of the many ways to make delicious use of BC Dairy products.
Phase 3
Bringing It Together
The new MRS Lumber website feels professional, capable, and welcoming, just like their business. It’s easy to browse their complete product offering, or to quickly hunt for specific product lines. Each product is supported with image galleries, downloads, and recommended related products. And it’s easy for visitors to get to know the people behind MRS Lumber with their richly detailed About page.
