Workspace took care of the full design and development of our platform, from early planning to launch.

They built the public booking website where users can search, compare, and book yachts and catamarans online, with real time availability, clear pricing, and online payments.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Workspace provided end-to-end design and digital communication support for our Innovate Split conference. Their scope covered adapting and applying the event’s visual identity across all channels and producing the full set of promotional and operational assets needed before and during the event. They worked closely with our organizing team to ensure consistency, fast turnarounds, and on-time delivery—especially as timelines and requirements evolved in the lead-up to a live event.

Key deliverables included:

• Visual identity adaptations and design guidelines for digital use
• Social media assets for announcements, promotions, and ongoing updates (post and story formats)
• Digital promotional materials for attendees, speakers, and partners
• Accreditation and badge visuals for different attendee groups (speakers/partners/participants)
• On-site and online communication materials to support the conference experience and real-time updates

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

• Stronger pre-event reach and engagement: Our conference announcements and promotional content performed better due to consistent, high-quality visuals and coordinated posting.
• More consistent brand presence: The visual identity was applied uniformly across channels, which improved recognition and made the event look more professional and cohesive.
• Smoother on-site operations: Clear accreditation and badge assets helped streamline check-in and reduced confusion for different attendee groups (speakers, partners, participants).
• Positive stakeholder feedback: We received strong feedback after the event about the overall look, clarity of information, and professionalism of the materials.

Consistent design across channels improved attendee and partner experience, reflected in positive post-event feedback.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Workspace’s project management was smooth, proactive, and well organized. They set clear priorities with us, kept deliverables moving through short feedback cycles, and consistently delivered items on time, even with the fast turnarounds and last-minute adjustments that come with a live event. They were highly responsive, quick to incorporate feedback, and flexible when our needs shifted, while still maintaining a consistent visual standard across all materials.

What was your primary form of communication with Workspace?

• In-Person Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their ability to maintain a strong, coherent visual identity across a large number of deliverables while staying fast and flexible stood out. They clearly understand the pace and complexity of event work (tight deadlines, multiple stakeholder groups, and frequent last-minute changes) and still delivered consistently high-quality assets with great attention to detail and communication throughout.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Workspace could have done differently?

Overall, the collaboration went very smoothly and we were happy with the outcome. If anything, the only improvement would be on our side, locking certain inputs slightly earlier would reduce last-minute iterations. Workspace handled changes quickly and professionally, so there’s nothing major we’d point out as a gap.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Workspace handled a full redesign and rebuild of our Sailweek website. This included modernising the look and feel, improving the overall user experience, creating new layouts for our routes and product pages, and making the site faster and easier for our team to update. They also helped clean up our structure and navigation and made sure everything worked smoothly on mobile.

They now provide ongoing maintenance for us and are currently developing a new booking flow to make the customer journey even smoother.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

After the refresh, we saw better engagement across the site - lower bounce rate, longer time on page, and more visitors moving through our routes and booking info. We’ve also had more positive feedback from guests about how clean, modern, and easy the site feels. Even early on, it was clear the new structure made a noticeable difference in how people move through the site

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

Workspace’s project management has been solid throughout. They’re organised, communicate clearly, and keep us updated on what’s happening at each stage. They’ve delivered the key parts of the project on time, and when we’ve needed changes or had questions, they’ve always responded quickly and been easy to work with. It’s felt like a very straightforward, no-stress process from our side.

What was your primary form of communication with Workspace?

• In-Person Meeting
• Email or Messaging App

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

What stood out most is that Workspace genuinely felt like part of our team rather than an outside contractor. They took the time to really understand our business model, how we operate, and what our guests look for. Even when we changed direction or refined ideas along the way, they were patient, flexible, and focused on finding the best solution for us. That level of involvement and understanding is pretty rare and made a huge difference to the final outcome.

Are there any areas for improvement or something Workspace could have done differently?

Honestly, we’ve been really happy with everything so far. If we had to mention anything, it would only be small things that come naturally with any ongoing project — nothing that reflects negatively on their work. They’ve been easy to communicate with, quick to respond, and overall great to work with, so there isn’t anything major we’d say they should have done differently.
