The Client: RDS Decorating, Date: 2016 (original), updated 2019
RDS Decorating is an independent painting and decorating contractor based in Beckenham, South London. RDS asked DigitalBulldog to design and build a new website and create a unified identity for the business.
What we did:
We created a new logo, based on one the client had been using for a few years. Most importantly, the new logo is fully adaptable for use not just as a company symbol but also suitable for the business cards and flyers which we also designed for RDS.
Our recommendation for the site was to keep it basic. The site provides a point of contact, gallery of work, testimonials, concise text on the client's services, and pushes social media channels. We used animated sliders for focusing attention, and we used our custom-designed MaxFax™ format for longer sections of text. A new CMS-based site is in the planning stages.
Update 26/09/2019
While the new CMS-based site is still in the planning stages, we decided to give the existing RDS Decorating website a new lease of life. Most of the site's multiple pages have been condensed into a one-sheet style homepage, and the mobile-friendly variant was completely rebuilt from scratch. We also installed a more-secure better-protected message form to help prevent spam. The end result takes the RDS Decorating website into a more-modern more-professional era.
Update 05/08/2021
We've retired the HTML site and launched an all-new CMS-based site for RDS Decorating.
Update 28/01/2023
RDS Decorating have a shiny new logo (not by us, sadly!) so we've reworked the site colours to match accordingly. We implemented both new feedback and gallery sections too.
