Situation
Olive Paper is a long standing stationery business located in Charlotte, NC in need of a website facelift.
They sought a bright, clean and elegant site that reflected the type of stationary they specialize in, thoughtfully crafted wedding and celebration stationery, bespoke event-day details, corporate invitiations, and elevated branding for creative businesses. The website needed to offer clear service offerings, a strong portfolio and an SEO boosting blog.
This project was in collaboration with MJ Creative.
Industry: Boutiques
What Was Done

Approach
Brand Identity
Olive Paper’s brand identity still worked for them at the time of the redesign and did not require a refresh.

Logo Design
Olive Paper’s logo featured an olive branch, which was an element we wanted to carry throughout the website. You will notice those subtle details throughout.
Typography & Color Palette
Olive Paper’s color palette and typography did get a refresh. We wanted to pull in more of the cypress and olive greens throughout their site to keep that warmer earthy tone. The soft pinks and neutrals were used as soft backgrounds and fonts.

Web Design
The website needed to boldly express and reflect Olive Paper’s style. Each page held small details as accents similar to what you would find on their actual invitiations and stationery. A plethora of textures are seemlessly integrated through a cohesive color palatte reflective of their existing brand.
SEO and AEO Optimization
Olive Paper needed to be recognized in AI, our solution was to leverage their existing work by creating a uniquely organized portfolio, similar to what you find on wedding photographer websites. We also wanted to include credits to various wedding vendors throughout the website, using the portfolio and blog was a super easy way to leverage cross linking. The search engine optimization and artificial engine optimization work allowed Olive Paper to appear quickly among AI search results and provided accurate AI summaries of the business.

Impact
Since launching the new website, Olive Paper saw a spike in overall traffic as well as search with over 400 new site visits within the first 30 days of launching. Olive Paper also saw an increase in website engagement and button clicks for their services.
Through strategic website design and effective UX, we were able to create a beautiful, modern and elegant website that was able to be found across search engines and AI engines. New clients were able to access information quickly, find inspiration for their own wedding, and pull up contact information quickly to begin their next stationery project with Olive Paper.
