THE solution
Capsule’s design solutions centered around more clearly communicating AllGear’s mission of creating moving media with a focus on pursuing the interests of those who play hard.
A unique color scheme was developed to distinguish AllGear from the competitive set. Brand photography throughout the web experience was enhanced, leveraging hover states to showcase interest-specific imagery across AllGear’s varying media brands. A halftone pattern was applied to photography to increase stylistic cohesion and give nod to the nostalgic styling and feel of an old school media publication.
Custom headlines were created and applied throughout the new site, including the site’s masthead tagline, “Media that moves you”.
THE impact
The rebranded site launch coincided with AllGear announcing a newly secured round of $40 million in financing. The fresh design has contributed to a renewed energy and excitement around the active-lifestyle media company as it continues to grow its portfolio and acquire brands that work hard for any kind of play.
Testimonial
“I was most impressed with Capsule's care, attention to detail, and quality of work throughout this project. Not only did they work with us to find a pricing solution that fit within our budget, they also completed the work on our rebranded site design under the constraint of a tight timeline.” — Stephen Regenold, VP Strategy - AllGear Digital
