TAMPA, Florida – BrandMinded®, a creative agency based in the heart of historic Hyde Park, is the winner of two Gold Hermes Creative Awards – a professional, international competition recognizing excellence in digital and electronic media. The Tampa digital agency is awarded Gold for the design and development of the Beaux-Arts Group and Christine’s Hope for Kids Foundation websites.

“When a client approaches us with the need for a new website, we work with them very closely to establish the most effective designs, layouts, and functionalities to address their specific goals,” says Meagan Floco, Digital Director and senior web developer at BrandMinded®.

“We are thrilled that both these websites, although very different in nature and scope, were both recognized with Gold awards at the international level,” Mrs. Floco says.

Beaux-Arts Group is a commercial furniture dealer specializing in workplace design and ergonomics; BrandMinded® won Gold recognition in the B2B category of web design for the newly redesigned, state-of-the-art website.

Christine’s Hope for Kids Foundation is a non-profit organization that helps less fortunate children by supporting local community agencies in fundraisers and educational ventures. As a non-profit, BrandMinded® developed a responsive website, pro-bono, that would allow visitors to understand the mission and donate to their cause.

Somehow, in your mind, it’s better to work for yourself 90 hours a week than to work for someone else for 40 hours.

TAMPA, Florida – Tampa digital agency BrandMinded® has designed, developed and launched a state-of-the-art website for Beaux-Arts Group, an interior design firm and the exclusive dealer of Knoll furniture throughout Central Florida. From UI design, to custom photography, videography, content writing and updating the content management system, BrandMinded® has overhauled the entire website from the ground up.

 

From commercial space to education, government, and healthcare, the Beaux-Arts Group provides answers to complex workspace challenges. The new website features an elegant, intuitive sitemap that allows users to easily navigate through their different services, industries served, and past projects.

 

While the previous website was mobile-friendly and optimized for search engines, Beaux-Arts wanted to re-assert their unique viewpoint that everything starts with service.

 

“Their client-centric philosophy on design and furnishings extends not only to the people in their showroom, but within every touchpoint they have with their clients,” says Seth Sullivan, Graphic Designer at BrandMinded™, the project’s design lead.

 

“We wanted to create an extraordinary website that’s not only beautiful but gives the user a world-class digital experience. We moved away from the boxed layout to a fullwidth site that would fully allow us to showcase the high-calibre of work that is Beaux-Arts,” Seth says.

 

The new Beaux-Arts Group website showcases the company’s pursuit of excellence through a modernized, responsive interface that delivers a stunning user experience. The Home and About Us page prominently feature the new office and company headquarters that Beaux-Arts acquired in 2017 in the modern Sykes building in downtown Tampa. BrandMinded™ provided professional photography and videography shoots to showcase the staff’s passion for service, and to feature the Beaux-Arts living showroom – the pinnacle of their interior design genius.

 

In the future, the website will be home to the Beaux-Arts 3D Experience – an interactive, immersive 3D display that allows users to explore the possibilities of space and unlock the potential of their own work environments. To stay tuned on these developments, be sure to follow Beaux-Arts Group’s on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram.
