DSO Website
Development Services Ontario (DSO)
DSO is the access point for adult developmental services in Ontario. The challenge was to create an information and application portal for young adults and their caregivers to determine available supports, connect with local DSO agencies, and understand and begin the application process.
Animated explainer videos, also used in social media, help users learn about DSO services in a friendly and easy-to-understand way, engaging the younger audience.
An interactive wizard walks users through the application process to help determine eligibility for services. Users can then easily submit eligibility documents, streamlining the intake process, reducing costs, and improving client service.
An interactive map uses current location or postal code lookup to find the user’s local DSO quickly, reducing calls to the central office.

West Canadian Digital (WCD)
WCD
In 1952, West Canadian Digital (WCD) was founded in Calgary, providing digital print, signage, and document management services to businesses in the area. As the company grew and evolved over the years, they realized that it was time to embark on a rebranding strategy to create a foundation for emerging opportunities and stay ahead of the competition.
WCD turned to our team of branding experts to help them modernize their image and create a new website that would be at the forefront of the company's future. As a classic and reserved brand, the challenge was to make WCD more modern and expressive, while still maintaining their core values and focus on the human element of the business.
After careful consideration and collaboration with the WCD team, we developed a brand identity that was both playful and corporate, with a simple design featuring purposeful whitespace, layered colors, and curved elements. The typography was soft and welcoming, creating a warm and approachable feel for the brand.
For the new website, we created a streamlined navigation system with multiple calls to action to engage users and encourage them to contact the company. The website is now the cornerstone of WCD's rebranding efforts, and we are proud to have been a part of their journey.
