New years bring along with them numerous changes: new looks, new styles, new resolutions. For us, it’s a new website. We performed a complete overhaul on 88brandpartners.com, giving it a cleaner look that better reflects who we are and what we do. I’d like to take a couple moments introduce you to various aspects of this redesign.
One of the most exciting parts of working on this site overhaul was getting the green light to secure original video and photography. Ben Mahoney Productions shot the video you can see throughout the site. These quick snippets give an immediate insight into life at 88—how and where we work and play. Taylor Castle did all of our new photography, which you can see most readily on our Meet page, and now introducing some of our Think articles.
The 88 Dev Team had some terrific fun creating a new gadget for the Connect page. Below our South Loop map, you’ll see real-time CTA train tables showing the next outgoing trains at all the stops closest to 88. Each line updates a couple times a minute. (Unless there’s a delay; this is the CTA, after all.) And in the map itself are pins showing the neighborhood spots we tend to frequent the most. These are accompanied by a brief descriptor and photographs shot by 88 employees.
We’d love for you to take some time to click around and get a feel for the site. Scroll through our updated case studies on the See page. Get your brain churning on the Think page. Find out more about your favorite 88ers on the Meet page. And watch our new agency reel on the Learn page. We hope you’ll be as excited about this new site as we are.
