The Project Overview

La Bom Swim founder Athene McRae needed a website redesign to relaunch with, raise brand awareness and ramp up sales. We worked very closely together, Athene has a fantastic eye for design and a strong vision, to create a spacious, open, natural and feminine website.

The new website has a WordPress frontend and a Shopify backend, a tricky integration which works a treat if you need to keep all your Shopify information. Her company designs, sells and distributes sensational sustainably made swimwear, which is made using ECONYL®. Her company is right on track with her vision and eye for what good needs to be done in the world. Another dream project.

Working with Georgie has been an absolute pleasure. She is super efficient and a fantastic communicator which is something I had struggled with in the past with other web designers. She was also extremely patient with my lack of knowledge and understanding in the tech world and took a lot of time and effort to reassure me and guide me through the hoops. I am delighted with what she has created and receive a lot of compliments from customers. The after care service she provides is excellent which is important to me, I can relax knowing that if there are any problems, I am still supported. I can highly recommend working with Georgie and Studio Folk Lore.

...lots of the design was improved across the site. Improved imagery and a stronger more cohesive brand identity across the site. The work took less time than expected, and completed well before the deadline that we had agreed. All in all a fantastic experience. Georgina is a fantastic communicator, has a fantastic eye for design and has the technical wizardry to make a website actually work.

I approached Studio folklore to help with my website. I had an existing one that I had made myself but I knew I needed to upgrade. Georgina was patient, supportive and super helpful. I appreciated her creative input as well as her respect for my artworks and their placement on the page. I would highly recommend working with Studio Folklore for your creative website design. I am very pleased with the result and will be returning to work with Georgina to take things to the next level!

5* ! Cannot recommend enough. Georgina was an angel sent for my business! Georgina helped me improve my website with a blog, better SEO and basically helped rebuild it. It was so nice to be able to talk to someone like a professional friend- without having too many tecchy terms thrown at you. It is hard to find someone who is trustworthy in that line of business and Georgina is!

Our brief wasn’t straightforward, we needed to make a number of essential changes to our website without disrupting the brand look and feel. Studio Folk Lore's approach was to carefully listen and build their own sense for our brand and what we wanted to communicate. They showed great sensitivity to both the aesthetics and the content and worked closely with us making themselves and their resources fully available until we were all happy with the outcome

Renovating our website resulted in a shifting and refining of our entire brand identity. Our online sales have increased dramatically over the last 6 months, and a lot of that is due to our beautiful, functional, branded website and resultant communications. She goes above and beyond for her clients, and her design, creativity and innovation are superb. I couldn’t recommend her more.

We have had the opportunity to work with Folklore since 2022 to build our brand website on Shopify for swand.com, and for periodic refreshes. It has been important that we build something compelling and seductive for the home goods sector, yet easy to navigate and purchase from, as well as flexible for our own in-house design team to refresh as needed. Georgina’s personal knowledge of our market, her creative guidance and technical skills, and her enthusiastic and professional demeanor from initiation to scope definition to site completion, and ongoing updates have all been excellent. She and her team are organized and capable of many facets including creative and build processes, suggesting work arounds, apps, and putting in the needed time researching to bring visions to reality. Highly recommend working with Folklore!
