Rikorda

10.2008 | web 

Rikorda is one of Italy’s leading groups in the photo development and printing market, serving over 4500 photographers nation-wide. However their website didn’t quite match their status of market leaders.

From May to September 2008 we went through the process of redesigning Rikorda’s website from the ground up. Teaming up with their R&D and marketing consultants, we designed a new layout, making a better use of space and trying to reduce the clutter of the previous website. We went for light colours and a clean visual design, leaving the stage to photos and product pictures.
We also used widgets to segment contents by type, so users can easily browse services, promos or product families.

The old Rikorda’s website (left) and the new one (right). As you can see, layout has been redesigned to make a better use of space and to reduce page clutter.

The new website makes extensive use of Prototype and Scriptaculous-based effects and animated widgets, to change the old-fashioned rotating banners with user-controlled slider and accordions. Siloos once again helped us with the development part.

We provided the frontend design and development (XHTML, CSS and JavaScript), while the core framework has been developed by Rikorda’s in-house IT team, who is also taking care of website contents and updates.
