Dublin Panorama - Owen Reilly Banner

Owen Reilly

The Brief

Since 2008, Owen Reilly has been one of Dublin’s most reputable estate agents, but we got a chance to give them a new home with this project. We tore up the blueprints of their old website and our designers and developers created an online platform from the ground up.

The new Owen Reilly site is a modern and elegant new build, with a focus on function, simplicity and usability, which chimes with their ongoing emphasis on streamlined customer service and data-driven research and results. After in-depth collaborative discovery workshops, we opted for a minimalist black and white palette, which enhances the prominent property photos and gives the site a gallery portfolio feel. The buildings aren’t the only stars on view — as a company with a strong belief in teamwork, we made sure all staff members became part of the story, with prominent profiles and friendly faces to greet potential clients.

We considered a quality User Experience (UX) at all levels of the website, from a streamlined user flow to supplementary training so staff can update the website and maintain a standard of excellence once our builders took down the scaffolding and gave them the keys to their new online home.
