The current website does not reflect the vibrant and festive nature of the brand, nor does it effectively communicate the company's updated offerings. The goal of this project is to design and develop a new website using either Wix or Squarespace that captures the essence of Colour Me Christmas. The website should be visually appealing, user-friendly, and optimized for both desktop and mobile devices. It should also include sections for product showcases, customer testimonials, and a blog for holiday tips and ideas. The project provides an opportunity for learners to apply their web design and development skills, utilizing tools and techniques learned in the classroom to create a cohesive and engaging online platform.
The deliverables for this project include a fully functional website hosted on Wix or Squarespace that reflects the new branding of Colour Me Christmas. Currently the website is on Shopify and I would like to get off that platform as the shop is no longer the primary purpose of the website. The website should feature a homepage, product pages, a blog section, and a contact page. Additionally, the project requires a style guide that outlines the color scheme, typography, and design elements used throughout the site. A brief report summarizing the design process and decisions made during the project will also be submitted.
Sharing knowledge in specific technical skills, techniques, methodologies required for the project.
Direct involvement in project tasks, offering guidance, and demonstrating techniques.
Providing access to necessary tools, software, and resources required for project completion.
Scheduled check-ins to discuss progress, address challenges, and provide feedback.
About the company
Colour Me Christmas is a social enterprise that focuses on celebrating diversity within the holiday season. We sell ethnic and international holiday home dรฉcor, childrenโs toys, publish holiday books, create diverse holiday content as well as provide a racially diverse Santa for your next event.
Our aim is to sell products that allow BIPOC individuals to feel included and celebrated during the holiday season because there is nothing worse than walking through the aisles of a store and not seeing yourself represented. Our products deliver joy through inclusion with a sprinkle of Christmas magic.
We are a social enterprise that gives back to pediatric healthcare in honour of the lifesaving care received by our infant son during his first Christmas.
We believe that Christmas can be for everyone because the holiday season represents JOY, COMMUNITY & IMPACT to us. It is not about religious dogma or exclusion. We understand that the Christmas season can feel isolating and stressful to many so we hope our presence can infuse a sense of happiness and belonging for all.
Currently the business is going through a PIVOT and we are aiming to focus more on our services than our products. We are also looking to change the name and rebrand to make it a more year round business.
