Details

Colour Me Christmas, a company specializing in holiday-themed products and services, is looking to revamp its online presence to align with its new branding and business objectives. The current website does not reflect the vibrant and festive nature of the brand, nor does it effectively communicate the company's updated offerings. The goal of this project is to design and develop a new website using either Wix or Squarespace that captures the essence of Colour Me Christmas. The website should be visually appealing, user-friendly, and optimized for both desktop and mobile devices. It should also include sections for product showcases, customer testimonials, and a blog for holiday tips and ideas. The project provides an opportunity for learners to apply their web design and development skills, utilizing tools and techniques learned in the classroom to create a cohesive and engaging online platform.

Deliverables

The deliverables for this project include a fully functional website hosted on Wix or Squarespace that reflects the new branding of Colour Me Christmas. Currently the website is on Shopify and I would like to get off that platform as the shop is no longer the primary purpose of the website. The website should feature a homepage, product pages, a blog section, and a contact page. Additionally, the project requires a style guide that outlines the color scheme, typography, and design elements used throughout the site. A brief report summarizing the design process and decisions made during the project will also be submitted.
