India International School In Japan
The team at the India International School in Japan found us on a Google search for school website design companies. We are so happy that we were able to work with them to create a modern, functional website using WordPress (our specialty!).
The school has a long tradition of Indian education in Tokyo, and the founder of the school is still running a vibrant and successful program for kindergarten through high school, including a full IB program.
Objective
To create a website which reflected the character of the school and was easy for their staff to maintain, Design TLC set out to:
- Redesign and Modernize the Website: Create a modern, welcoming WordPress website that better reflects the school’s vibrant community and educational excellence.
- Enhance Branding Presentation: Improve the quality and consistency of the school’s existing logo and develop a cohesive color palette to enhance the school’s digital identity.
- Create a User-Friendly Editing Experience: Build a WordPress site that is easy to edit, empowering school administrators to manage and update content independently.
- Improve First Impressions: Refresh the website’s overall design to create a brighter, more professional look using the school’s existing photography and strategic use of space.
Approach
Logo and Branding Enhancement
- While the school did not want a new logo, the version of the logo they were using on their former website was blurry and hard to read. We created a vector version of the logo, which looks much more crisp on the web.
- We also developed a color palette that complemented the colors in the logo, and applied a soft gradient to the website design, giving it a warm and professional look.
Website Design and Development
- We replaced the dark former site with a bright, friendly design that makes a positive first impression.
- We utilized the school’s existing photography with increased white space to highlight the school’s community and personality.
WordPress Customization and Editing Support
- The new site was built using saved modules and reusable design elements to allow for consistent page creation and easier updates.
- We added comprehensive documentation with screenshots and instructions to empower the administration team to manage text, images, menus, and more.
Outcome
Using these methods, Design TLC was able to create:
- A fresh, Professional Online Presence: The new website gives the India International School in Japan a modern, welcoming look that better showcases their programs and values.
- Improved Branding Consistency: The crisp, vectorized logo and cohesive color scheme strengthen the school’s brand identity across digital platforms.
- Simplified Site Management: The easy-to-edit WordPress setup and clear documentation enable the school’s team to independently manage and maintain their new website.
- Stronger First Impressions: Visitors to the website now experience a bright, professional, and inviting view of the school community, helping to attract new families and build pride within the existing community.
