The Brands:
Starter needed a new design for their two brands: Starter Black Label and Starter Active. Built on a wordpress platform, Starter.com tells the story of the brand though parallax scrolling, full width imagery, and custom typography. Avex also developed a fully responsive mobile platform, with gesture specific scrolling, mobile navigation, and retina display images. Starter’s new intuitive website captures the history of the brand through imagery, content, and usability.
Pony is a men’s sneaker line that was started in 1972 on Madison Avenue. In 2015, Avex worked with the brand to develop a digital conversion platform in the form of a magento eCommerce website. Avex shifted the focus to user experience, design, and a new backend system. Once launched, there was a drastic increase in online sales and traffic. The minimal experience design allows users to browse and purchase with ease and the filter feature gives users control over their shopping experience. Since 50% of their users are on mobile, Avex used a “mobile first” approach, paying attention to the touch screen experience. Using HTML5, CSS3, and Magento CMS, Avex created a seamless website that matches the aesthetic of the Pony brand.
Artful Dodger is a men’s clothing brand that attracts the alternative, untraditional customer. Avex partnered with them to create a minimal responsive website using a mobile first approach. Because the goal was to increase brand awareness, Avex focuses on high resolution, full width photographs to help tell the brands story and showcase the new collection. An intuitive desktop, tablet, and mobile experience, Artful Dodger’s modern adaptation of cutting edge energy is expressed through their new website.
Waverly, a home lifestyle brand needed a website to exhibit their products. Because they don’t have their own ecommerce site, the goal was to give consumers information about the product that leads them to external shopping sites to purchase. Avex designed a product finder to show information about each pattern. This allows users to search through the designs based on preferences. Additionally, Avex worked on their DIY website, Waverly Inspiration.
The apparel brand Rocawear started an online lifestyle publication inspired by the brand. Avex developed a custom WordPress powered theme for the clothing brand, as well as relaunched their main website.
