While in preparation for their move from the Cranberry/Mars area to their new location in Pittsburgh’s Strip District on Smallman Street, 3R contacted 4CDesignWorks to discuss updating their web presence. The original site was built with limited content management abilities and served its purpose for the original launch, but as 3R grew from their start-up roots, the website needed to reflect their growth and expanded capabilities.
As part of the redesign process, a review of all marketing materials occurred and several layouts were considered. This visual direction incorporated angular patterns, and custom created line art icons, reflective of the 3R logo mark. Sections were emphasized through the effective use of color, also stemming from the 3R brand, while action buttons were softened with rounded edges to mimic the company font.
The 3R Sustainability Website was rewarded by it’s unique design approach for this industry, by a GDUSA American Graphic Design Award in the area of Online Design!
