Colors & Typography

For the Toehold project, we carefully selected a color palette that reflects the essence of nature, wildlife, and conservation.

Illustrations & Iconography

We created simple yet effective illustrations as icons for various Photo Tours. These icons represented the primary sightings of animals, monuments and locations in a concise way, while browsing through numerous tours.

Responsive UX Design

The entire experience design was built with an approach that enabled the features to tailor themselves for desktops/laptops, tablets and mobiles.

Dynamic Content (CMS) with Filters

The entire web experience was built in connection with a Content Management System, making the content dynamic. Searching, sorting and filtering were made integral parts of the experience.

Enquiry & Booking Forms

Connected to the back-end, numerous forms were built to send across data, store submitted data in the database. These forms are tied with dynamic fields such as the tours being enquired for and country code fields for phone numbers.

Dynamic Interactive World Map

A CMS-integrated data-driven dynamic world map was built for filtering the destinations covered across for the tours Toehold offered.

Blogs with Filters

Toehold's exceptional writing takes center stage in their new blog section, crafted to showcase their content in the best light. We’ve built a platform that enhances this outstanding writing with features like sorting, searching, and filtering, ensuring readers can effortlessly find what they need.

Data Driven Photo Tour Schedules

A dynamic section for Toehold's web portal that showcases their photo tours, complete with dates, schedules, and a color-coded status system. Whether a tour is open for booking, filling fast, or fully booked, this feature provides real-time updates powered by their CMS.

Ad Campaign Landing Pages

For every advertising campaigns the company runs, we build high-impact and high-conversion landing pages, connecting to payment gateways for seamless payments and forms integrated with back-end communication systems for easy conversion of users.
