Challenge

The client commissioned us to relaunch kasto.com, asking us to stay as close as possible to the design of the original website. Despite the lack of a dedicated design template, we managed to develop a shared vision that satisfied both the team and the client. We also implemented a complex product finder with numerous linked facets. The challenge was to gain an in-depth understanding of the customer's product world in order to master its complexity. Another important feature was the country-specific home pages, which automatically display the appropriate page using GEO-IP and the user's browser language. This customisation enables targeted and user-friendly navigation on the website.

Solution

Our agile methods and open dialogue enabled us to work effectively with the customer to address both the design issues and the architecture of the Product Finder, as well as the functionalities of the country-specific home pages, and to implement them successfully. Continuous communication played a crucial role in our success. In order to seamlessly integrate the product area, which was to be redesigned from scratch, into the website, we commissioned our designer to develop a fresh and innovative layout.
