Northeast Lantern
Responsive Website
WHAT DID WE ACHIEVE WITH THE NORTHEAST LANTERN WEBSITE?
Based in Exeter, NH, Northeast Lantern is a family owned company that manufactures hand-made brass and copper lighting fixtures. They produce a quality product using traditional methods and we needed to convey this in their web design. It was important for both their customers and distributors to easily browse their extensive catalog. Using a custom data model, we built a database of their products and then built multiple front-facing views in order to serve this information in a dynamic way that is easily maintained by their staff. Using the latest responsive web design techniques, we made the site accessible to a diverse audience on a wide variety of mobile devices and browser platforms.
