The client & summary
GLR Medien Management is a German agency for web design, social media and digitalisation. The core objective was to redesign its own website: keep the existing site as a guideline, but make it feel much more personal, especially the homepage.
The challenge
As a design agency, the client had high standards for its own site. It wanted more images and personality on the homepage, a GDPR-compliant contact form, and it tested whether its print corporate design would work online.
Our solution
Our team redesigned the website between February and May 2026.
Design
The first draft was ready on 5 March 2026 in a dark style. At the client's request our team produced a second homepage draft based on its flyers and business cards. The client found the print design did not translate well online and chose the first dark draft, which was then finalised, with the service boxes restored to their original style.
Animations
Scroll animations were added, and an animated dashboard element was built in place of the previous video.
Launch
After mobile refinements and a backup of the old site, the new website was migrated to glr-management.de in March 2026.
Challenges we solved
Comparing two directions: presenting both a digital and a print-inspired homepage let the client decide with confidence.
Structure
The site includes the homepage, services, references, about us, consultation booking and contact, together with the legal notice and privacy policy. The client's existing website, shown in a walkthrough video, served as the guideline for content and structure, while our team was free to make changes where they improved the result.
Back to the first draft
After testing the print-based design, the client concluded that print design does not simply work online and decided to stay with the first, dark draft. In the final round the content boxes were restored to the style of that first draft, and the logo in the navigation bar was resized so it no longer looks oversized.
