Carriage Pointe Website Redesign

Carriage Pointe at Aquia Homepage-Desktop and Mobile

Carriage Pointe was in need of a Website redesign, as well as being mobile-friendly. The site was redesigned from the ground up, with new colors, typography, photograpy, and text. Planning for limited bandwidth requirements was key--and responsively served images (generated on the fly within the system) allow a image-heavy design while not overtaxing mobile devices. By planning mobile-first, and incorporating fluid layouts, the finished site delivers a high-quality experience to all device users.

New custom floorplan redrawings were required to conform to design and branding guidelines, as well as display properly in all sizes. Vector artwork eliminates the need for responsively sized images and multipliers.
