Sustenance Design

The Brief:

• I was hired to update their old WordPress site with a new design and updated back-end.
• Client wanted the blog to reflect their overall aesthetic of a focus on building ecosystems, local and pollinator plants.
• Client wanted a focus on photographs of the spaces she had created.

Project Notes:

• Client expressed frustration at the age and lack of update-ability of their old site (created with WordPress many years ago), which was not responsive and adding information and visuals required laborious coding.
• The previous site was showing its age, and had no place to highlight the beautiful spaces client was working on. The new design puts images front-and-center.
• We decided on the Xterey theme for its landscaping-specific functionality and highly visual layout.
• The project involved migrating existing blog content as well as a site audit to identify content that would not be correctly moved over.  We identified several collections of assets that could be added to the new site.
• We also built an entirely new portfolio section featuring photo galleries along side architectural designs.
