Strong User Centric Focus with Clear Navigation Points

As a growing global brand, John Sands required a digital platform
for retailers that reflected the fun nature of their products but was
also easy to navigate. The solution was a clean and intuitive user
experience that was enhanced with the vibrancy of product
photography and custom stop-motion animations.

We worked on building a vibrant digital presence for John Sands by utilising their extensive collection of fun products for a rewarding and interactive user experience.

Where there is hope, there is vision. It’s the most rewarding feeling to be able to create a site that goes beyond simply information sharing but ties in so many functions like fundraising, marketing, promotions and tracking.
