After Webflow

Features

What we did for LIS
Webflow Development
LIS provided our team with a Figma design, which we skillfully translated into a dynamic website using Webflow. Employing a clean and modular structure, we meticulously crafted each component to ensure not only a visually appealing design but also a highly functional one.

This modular approach empowers us to seamlessly reuse sections across the entire website, maintaining a consistent and polished appearance. Furthermore, it provides the LIS marketing team with the flexibility to mix and match these sections effortlessly, simplifying the process of creating new pages with precision and efficiency
Lottie
The homepage features a captivating custom Lottie animation, meticulously crafted in-house. Lottie animations are lightweight, scalable animations that enhance user engagement and are easily integrated into web projects.

This animation not only adds visual dynamism and intrigue to the homepage but also serves as a powerful tool for conveying the concept of 'interdisciplinary' in a seamless and engaging manner. As the saying goes, 'a picture speaks a thousand words,' and in this case, our Lottie animation effortlessly communicates the essence of interdisciplinary work.
Webflow Training
We didn't just hand over a new website to LIS and disappear. Instead, we took a collaborative approach by providing extensive training and ongoing support to their team over a period of six months. This comprehensive training ensured that they gained the expertise required to confidently edit the website, modify content, and seamlessly incorporate new CMS items, such as blogs and additional pages.

Our commitment to empowering the LIS marketing team with these skills has proven immensely valuable. It enables them to work swiftly and efficiently without the fear of inadvertently causing disruptions to the site— an essential element for any educational institution's online presence.

Results

As a trusted partner, LIS approached us with their vision for a new website. Leveraging the Figma design they provided, we harnessed our expertise to craft a modular, component-driven website on Webflow.

This approach ensured a unified and visually appealing web presence while granting the LIS marketing team the flexibility to create and customise new pages effortlessly.

To enrich their online experience, we designed a bespoke in-house Lottie animation that adds an engaging visual element and vividly conveys the essence of 'interdisciplinary.' Our commitment extended beyond the website launch, encompassing six months of comprehensive training and support.

This investment empowered the LIS team to confidently manage and enhance their content, allowing them to navigate the dynamic world of education without compromising website integrity.
