Re-thinking space for effective business solutions
dhk { } thinkspace, founded in 1992, has come from a solid background of project management and commercial interior architecture. dhk { } thinkspace is an interior design practice that produces effective human solutions through inspirational design in built form.
Since its inception, the aim has been to produce credible design solutions coupled with a highly effective project management and cost control system. This total solution service initially filled a gap in the industry with constant leading-edge design solutions.
Objectives
In mid 2006, Thinkspace entered into discussions with dhk architects and, soon after, dhk { } thinkspace was born.
The website design required updating to reflect the new brand. The showcase had become outdated and required new project additions. New functionality was required to allow for newsletter subscriptions to be collected.
Features & End Result
- The site layout was redesigned to accommodate the new name and square logo, as the existing grid was unpractical.
- Showcase galleries were updated to give the individual images more impact, and allow for easier navigation.
- A Newsletter Subscription form was added to allow site visitors to sign-up on the mailing list.
