Overhauling a website after 5 years and trusting someone new is difficult. But this gamble paid off well.

ColorWhistle did the actual coding and finally content migration to complete the project. The team worked on gathering the information from the design to the final look and the wireframes. Overall, the client was pleased with the final outcome.
