Intro
The owner of Cocoa Yoga Cafe requested to create a brand new website. Whitney wants to create a yoga space where people can move and nourish their bodies while building a community. And she's doing just that in South Florida.
Discover
Whitney needed a website before their grand opening in North Port, Florida.
Her vision is to have a one-stop shop for yogis — a place where people can move and nourish their bodies while building a community. By having a place — the cafe and juice bar —to hang out before and after class, people can make friendships inside of Cocoa Yoga Cafe. She calls it a "three-fold quilt of all her favorite things".
Define
Before working with me, Whitney was frustrated after trying to work with another designer — they created a generic-looking website that didn't even have her brand colors. She never made that website live.
Whitney was ready to work with a professional designer who understood her vision for her business.
Because she tried doing it all by herself, she was done trying to figure the tech behind her website.
She was overwhelmed keeping track of everything that needs to be done when starting a business and wanted to delegate her website to someone who can get it done properly.
Website Goals
Create a central location for people to sign up for classes
Have information and updates on the building of the studio
Ability to add food ordering after the studio is up and running
Design
I chose the wave element to give the website a feeling of being in flow while also representing Cocoa Yoga Cafe's location, which is by the ocean. It works even better since the brand colors are blue, making the look very cohesive.
Outcomes
Because of Covid restrictions, the build out of Cocoa Yoga Cafe has been postponed, but Whitney is still teaching classes online and in different locations around North Port.
We’re currently working together to get more features onto the site while they get ready to open in 2022!
