Case Study
Carbonica is a global brand with a mission to combat global warming by the planting of trees. Carbonica as a company believes the only way to combat global warming is by combining a low-carbon economy with a programme of managed forestry on an unprecedented scale. All their carbon offsets fund reforestation and forest restoration programmes in Central America.
Requirement:
Carbonica wanted a site that could reflect their mission and the natural nature of their product. It needed to be able to calculate individual and business Carbon offsets with a back end e com solution.
Creative:
Creative Jar's design complimented well the brand, the content of the site, the environmental message and the reforestation activity of Carbonica. The design has been sited and showcased as an inspiriting design piece by Smashing magazine and Web designer Magazine and other websites around the world. Features of the website include live news feed, interactive flash animation tree cycle and its own blog; these bring the site alive and provide rich, added value content.
Technical:
The web build delivered a well structured XHTML/CSS compliant website. It was built using a bespoke .NET 3.5 development environment making use of latest LINQ to SQL, AJAX controls, RSS and XML aggregator controls. The site ultimately linked through to a payment gateway with full order management through the CMS. Website Designer Magazine cites Carbonica a top 50 site in the use of CSS techniques.
