Our Approach

With no design files and only a handful of inspiration links to work from, our team took a freestyle development approach—mocking up page layouts and visual styles directly in WordPress.

Work Highlights

Built Without Design Files

We translated raw ideas and inspiration links into a cohesive, branded web experience—no Figma or wireframes required.

Visual Map Selector

We developed a clickable custom map to showcase Calla’s geographic reach and fieldwork in underserved regions.

Fully Custom Forms

Every form—from general contact to donation workflows—was purpose-built to support the foundation’s unique needs.

Freestyle Collaboration Model

The build involved weekly collaboration and iterative refinements, resulting in a truly co-created product.

Early Milestone for Our Team

This was one of our first ever full WordPress builds—paving the way for the processes we use today.

Lightweight Animations

Subtle animations bring warmth and clarity without compromising accessibility or performance.

Simple but Scalable

The site was designed to grow—allowing the client to expand with more stories, partners, and program info over time.

The Outcome

Launched a professional nonprofit site from scratch—without formal designs

Using only inspiration links and client copy, we built a full-featured WordPress site that feels intentional and branded.

Enabled intuitive user journeys and partner engagement

Custom forms, an interactive map, and thoughtful layouts made it easy for users to understand Calla’s work and get involved.

Supported long-term flexibility for a growing foundation

With a solid WordPress build and user-friendly editor (WP Bakery), the Calla team can update content independently as their programs expand.
