Challenge:
Appleton Works needed a digital presence that reflected the quality of its work: strategic, data-led and highly focused on performance. The website was designed to make a complex range of PPC, paid social, analytics and reporting services feel clear, approachable and easy to navigate.
The Approach
Design Approach:
The design takes a minimal, editorial and performance-led approach, using strong typography, generous spacing and structured content to create clarity. Rather than relying on traditional agency clichés, the visual language focuses on data, movement, precision and direct communication.
