Featured Case Study
Overview
Michael Joly, owner of the Nauset Lantern Shop, hadn't made a single online sale ever from his previous web sites over three years. He came to KISS, his third webmaster, wanting a new site designed and built for the online sale of his hand-made, high end copper, brass and pewter lanterns. The challenge was to design and develop a system that would allow for customization of lantern styles, including choices of glass, finish and caging. KISS met the challenge by designing a web site that presented his eighteenth century craft appropriately with twenty-first century technology.
Design
Using antique textures and sepia-tone photographs, a site was developed that highlighted the Early Colonial heritage of Michael's craft. Michael's lanterns are painstakingly hand-crafted, and the site was constructed to differentiate his product from those that are simply mass-produced replicas.
