Elevating Mayer Building Company’s Digital Presence

Overview:

Working with Ryan Mayer of Mayer Building Company was a perfect example of the serendipity that often occurs in New Orleans. Our professional relationship began unexpectedly when Ryan, who is also my landlord, discovered my work as a designer. He expressed an eagerness to collaborate, particularly on updating his company’s website, which had been on his to-do list for some time.

Project Kickoff:

Our collaboration began with an initial meeting at French Truck Coffee, one of Ryan’s construction projects. Ryan shared his vision and goals for the new website, emphasizing the need for a modern, user-friendly design that would effectively showcase his company’s work. After reviewing his existing website, I suggested that an updated logo could also enhance his brand’s overall aesthetic and professional appeal.

Hannah not only re-designed and re-formatted our ten year old website, she built a site that I can personally update without trouble or expertise. The process was smooth and transparent. Her budget was accurate and we had no over-runs. The meetings with Hannah were enjoyable and Hannah was supportive and encouraging. I would highly recommend.

Logo Update:

I created a modern, type-forward logo that better reflected the contemporary and high-quality work Mayer Building Company is known for. The updated logo served as a strong foundation for the overall brand refresh and was seamlessly integrated into the new website design.

Website Development:

Building the new website on Squarespace, I focused on creating a clean, visually appealing platform that Ryan could easily manage on his own after launch. The site was designed to highlight Mayer Building Company’s portfolio, emphasize its expertise in construction, and make it easy for potential clients to get in touch. The streamlined design and intuitive navigation provided a much-needed upgrade from the previous website.
