Locke's Group - Website Design
Overview
Locke’s, an EPCM Contractor operating since 1948, required a modern website that reflected its expertise, innovation, and commitment to people. The redesign aimed to set the company apart from competitors, highlight its core values, and provide a tech-forward, intuitive experience for users.
Challenges & Solutions
Standing Out in a Competitive Industry
Many construction websites feel outdated and lack uniqueness.
The new design incorporates modern typography, high-quality visuals, and textured overlays of transmission towers to create a distinct brand identity.
Showcasing Legacy Without Dated Design
While Locke’s has 75+ years of experience, the focus needed to be on its future.
The homepage tagline, “Total Performance People Since 1948,” acknowledges history while emphasizing continued growth and expertise.
Highlighting People as the Core
Locke’s values its employees and wanted a human-centered design.
Large imagery of teams in action and sections like “Putting People First” reinforce the company’s commitment to its workforce and community.
Creating a Tech-Forward Experience
The site needed to be engaging but also easy to navigate for industrial and government clients.
A clean, structured layout, smooth scrolling, and intuitive toggles improve the user experience and keep information accessible.
Showcasing Services Without Overwhelming Users
Locke’s offers a wide range of services that needed to be clearly presented.
Interactive sections and visuals ensure each service is highlighted concisely without clutter, making it easy for users to explore offerings.
Improving Recruitment & Careers Section
Locke’s wanted to attract new talent while simplifying the application process.
A structured careers page includes an easy-to-use form for resume submissions, along with highlights of the company culture, benefits, and opportunities.
