As VOGUE’s sworn “Miami’s best kept secret,” C. Madeleine’s is now transformed from the fashion world’s sought after vintage showroom, to a successful and fully functional e-commerce vintage boutique with the help of Indigo Design.

C. Madeline’s unique and specific navigation required Indigo to develop a separate but compatible interface for the store that could then be transferred to the Big Commerce platform. Through wire frame mockups Indigo worked side by side with C. Madeline’s to develop a navigation system appropriate for vintage couture clients.

Indigo also developed a visual strategy and design to showcase the clothing in a contemporary re-contextualized light. Allowing a fresh, timeless look to translate through the product and site itself.

Thanks to a clean, a easy to navigate site and homepage promotionals, site traffic and C. Madeline’s purchases have quadrupled since launch.

Inspired by markets of the Mediterranean region and their gastronomic specialties Marché du Sud is a gourmet French market, restaurant, bakery, and wine bar all under one roof.

Marche du Sud, reached out to Indigo Design about increasing social activity within the structure of the site as well as enveloping the restaurant-marketplace fusion within one easy to manage content management system.

Indigo created a simple to navigate site and CMS fully manageable by Marche du Sud, with an integrated blog that can be seamlessly linked to facebook and twitter.

What distinguishes KARIOKA* from other swimwear lines are the one-of-a-kind graphics and illustrations, the bright and vibrant colours and its special retro feel.
The young Amsterdam based swimwear label reached out to Indigo to develop a seamless shopping cart solution with a specific design reflecting the illustration and design concepts behind their line.

The KARIOKA* online shop can now take advantage of Big Commerce administrative customizations, such as free shipping, product codes and size charts.

Lyon radiates the humble and unassuming atmosphere of the original bouchon while offering a modern twist on traditional lyonnais cuisine. Capitalizing on the diversity of the neighborhood and the great city that surrounds it, the atmosphere is for everyone all the time.

Indigo worked closely with Lyon’s branding expert Remaud Charmin to develop a site design reflecting the warm, inviting, and intimate nature of the traditional neighborhood french boucheron; along with a CMS that fully accommodates the restaurant’s events, promotions and social networking tools (i.e. facebook and twitter). These tools allow Lyon to take full advantage of viral marketing within their busy metropolitan location in the heart of the west village.

Chef Chris Leahy has created a menu featuring traditional Lyonnais cuisine sourced with local ingredients and enhanced with modern culinary instincts.

To support Lyon’s ever evolving and seasonal menu Indigo also equipped the restaurant with a flexible, menu feature on the CMS. This feature allows Lyon to independently and easily make menu changes, void of lag time and customer confusion, and keep their online menu up to date.

Indigo also maintains weekly support for the Lyon site with Indigo’s Client Relationship Management, assuring the Lyon site is consistently up to date with the most current news, events and providing additional social media and marketing buzz support.
