The Shipwreck Survey was in urgent need of a new and fresh design for their website. The previous website not only fell short in terms of aesthetics but also failed to provide an optimal user experience. Header texts were misaligned, which created a disorganized appearance, and several key elements did not display correctly on mobile devices, making it difficult for users to navigate on smartphones and tablets.
Additionally, the site required the addition of two new pages: one dedicated to showcasing current research findings and another for a potential blog where updates and insights could be shared with the community and stakeholders.
The earlier design also failed to effectively capture and visually represent The Shipwreck Survey’s core mission. It lacked essential visual storytelling elements that would engage visitors and convey the significance of their work, thus not meeting the client’s expectations for a compelling online presence.
The Shipwreck Survey envisioned this website as a digital business card for the organization—a platform that would not only provide information but also truly reflect the beauty and intrigue of underwater archaeological expeditions. They wanted the design to evoke a sense of adventure and exploration, drawing in visitors and inspiring them to learn more about the fascinating world of shipwrecks and marine archaeology.
We meticulously designed a powerful and user-friendly website using WordPress CMS, ensuring that The Shipwreck Survey could effortlessly manage and update their content at any time. Our team conducted thorough research to understand the unique requirements of the organization, which allowed us to tailor the website to their specific needs. This time, we placed a strong emphasis on creating a bug-free experience that would provide users with seamless navigation and quick access to information.
We integrated the latest features and plugins, not only to enhance functionality but also to bolster security, safeguarding the site against potential threats. Additionally, we implemented a responsive design to ensure the website looks great and functions well on all devices, from desktops to smartphones. Our goal was to empower The Shipwreck Survey with a robust platform that not only meets their current needs but also allows for future growth and scalability, ensuring that as their mission evolves, their online presence can adapt effortlessly alongside it.
Our bespoke WordPress website design thoughtfully incorporates maritime elements like vintage maps, compass roses, and diving helmets to evoke a sense of adventure and exploration. These features not only reflect the spirit of the sea but also connect visitors to the rich history of maritime navigation, including ‘The Shipwreck Survey.’ To truly immerse guests in an underwater experience, we strategically installed background images showcasing real expeditions with vibrant underwater landscapes and marine life. This attention to detail creates a captivating atmosphere, allowing visitors to feel as if they are embarking on their own underwater journey.
Before visitors can embark on the adventure of a lifetime, they must first immerse themselves in the captivating narrative of The Shipwreck Survey. This experience begins with a carefully crafted introduction that sets the stage for the journey ahead, introducing key themes and characters that will resonate throughout the exploration. Our innovative UX design skillfully breaks down large sections of text into digestible pieces, ensuring that the story remains engaging and accessible.
By utilizing aesthetic and modern fonts, we not only enhance readability but also create a visually appealing experience that draws visitors in, making them feel as though they are stepping into a different world. This design approach allows for smooth transitions between sections, keeping the audience’s attention focused and encouraging them to continue their exploration.
Additionally, we incorporate rich visuals and interactive elements that complement the narrative, further immersing users in the storytelling experience. This thoughtful approach to storytelling not only invites users to explore deeper but also ignites their imagination and curiosity about the mysteries that await them, fostering a deeper connection with the content and encouraging a sense of discovery that lingers long after their visit.
“I was looking for a new design for my website The Shipwreck Survey, and chose Studio Ubique based on their portfolio that matches the style I had in mind. They really took the time to listen to my wishes, and have processed this in a great way in a new website with a fresh look that fits exactly with what I want to convey. Studio Ubique thought along with me at every step, and also ensured that the website loads quickly and is optimized for both desktop as mobile. Behind the scenes, they have set up the WordPress environment in such a way that I can quickly and easily change certain elements such as photos and text, without any knowledge of coding or web building. The collaboration with Studio Ubique was very pleasant. Communication was very fast and efficient, they are always there for you when you need them.”
