Branding, managment software and website
Client: Association Epicerie Solidaire des Dragons
The challenge
For this customer, the chalenge I faced was to make a one in all tool : an easily manageable website (CMS), a POS system with inventory management, a virtual money, membership management, an HR managment system, an accountancy system - compliant with laws, an event and ticketing system and a collaborative suite including a drive, a WYSIWYG editor, a slideshow editor and a project manager.
This has to be made so multiple organizations can use it, and it has to be made from scratch and be as easily sustainable as possible.
The website and CMS
The website, managed by its included CMS must be fully accessible (for disabled) and includes : a page system, an article system, and a menu system.
The CMS allows admins to add plug-ins, edit page with a block editor system, create forms and get answers, create new articles, define new websites with their own themes, and so on.
The POS
Because it may be used by other organizations, the POS system needed to be flexible. So POS interfaces may adapt to be like grocery store's ones or PUB's ones, it may require or not users to identify before any transaction, it allows payments in the virtual money, interconnects with printers, cash drawer and bankcard payment device and it updates the inventory.
Events & Ticketing
The event and ticketing tool must be able to generate tickets with customizable designs, scan QR codes and barcodes, accept payments, manage the amount of people in room, etc.
But more than a basic ticketing system, this one allows admins to add 'subtickets', or options to each tickets. These options may be free or not, limited in quantity or not and antomatically given or not.
Other features
This page is going to be long, so I wont make too many sections describing how I answered to all the needs for this project.
If you would like to talk about it, I would be happy to do so. Thus, don't mind contacting me !
Branding
Before the logo, we needed to make a branding which would cover all the organization's needs.
Here you will see the most basic features of this branding (as it is, in my visual editor) because the organization wished to do not disclose other elements.
We have a few fonts, colors - which weren't respected on their version of the website's theme, and that's it. But indeed, its full version included a custom icon pack, variations of their logo, sereval templates and ideas to create new ones, and so on.
Logo
This logo was built with the organization's board, during a very long meeting. They paid attention to every detail.
As the organization is small and doesn't want to expand outside of its actual field of action, they found pointless to have a perfect logo (in terms of marketing). Moreover, simplicity is good in terms of avalaible time of brain, but in terms of creativity and soul of the brand it is just sad. Thus we went for a very detailed and warm logo.
