The collaboration with Willab Garden

Buying a greenhouse or conservatory is a big commitment. It starts with a dream of cultivating and spending time outdoors, then follows a customer journey that is often both physical and digital. An important task is to hold the customer's hand throughout the journey, from the first touchpoint to the purchase. Therefore, we designed a shopping experience that is simple and fast, but also guiding and inspiring. Fewer clicks to buy, but also better integration between guides, e-commerce and inspiration. The brand was reviewed and we developed a new graphic profile, tonality, guidelines and inspiration, which works for all channels - not just digital.

A fast, efficient and easy-to-use e-commerce solution, with inspiration and sales in focus for both customers and editors as well as a transformation to a more customer-centric approach.
