SFN Website
After years of struggling to find the right partner for a new website, Shxw’ōwhámél First Nation approached us to make their vision a reality. In our initial discussions, it was immediately evident that a website alone would not resolve the problems they wanted to solve. We helped Shxw’ōwhámél discover that what they really wanted help with was developing a clear communication strategy and a brand identity worthy of their ambitions.
Our research combined with consultation from Shxw’ōwhámél led to the creation of a brand strategy built around four principles: empowerment, transparency, stewardship, and resilience. Using Shxw’ōwhámél’s brand principles, we created a unified and flexible brand identity system that captures the richness of their culture and ensures consistent messaging across all platforms.
We used this unified and flexible brand system to design a visually pleasing and engaging website that better serves the needs of Shxw’ōwhámél’s members. The new site allows them to communicate confidently and effectively both internally and externally.
