case study

Moochies Cafe Weligama

Moochie’s is a healthy, surf inspired cafe in the heart of Weligama, Sri Lanka. I met Molly, one of the founders when I was living and working in Sri Lanka as a yoga teacher in 2019. We bonded over our love of surfing, vibrant salads, live music and our home, Australia.

This website not only reflects how beautiful the space and the food at Moochie’s is, but represents Molly and her love of life. I couldn’t have been happier to work on any project during my travels.

If you ever find yourself in Weligama, definitely swing by Moochie’s and make sure to say hi for me!

      details

      rebuild & revamp

      challenge.

      I was a regular at Moochies and absolutely loved everything the cafe and Molly had to offer but having only recently launched, they were in desperate need of an online presence outside of social media.

      solution.

      I worked with Molly to identify an elegant but sustainable solution that she could self-manage when I was no longer in Sri Lanka. This resulted in custom-built site plus training so she could always be in control of the site.

      process

      research, design, build, train

      Working so closely with this client meant that we were able to turn around the website within a 2-week timeline from the initial discovery session to the launch.

      It was an efficient, cost-effective and smooth-running project that both of us were extremely satisfied with.

      kick off

      An initial kick-off session with Molly the founder to understand the website needs and budget.

      discovery

      A quick ompetitor research on both local and global companies within the same industry.

      design

      Initial wireframes were presented to the client with 2 design options to choose from. Following this, full UI designs were created with placeholder content, working closely with the client on content (copy & imagery) & branding.

      setup & build

      Domain, hosting & site set up with BlueHost before custom multi-page build in WordPress. Photo editing was also included as part of the production to create consistency across the site.

      training & enablement

      A three part online tutorial series was created for the team at Moochies alongside two in-person training sessions of key team members to ensure basic editing and updating skills were available in-house. Molly has since been able to maintain and manage the website on her own which has been amazing for self-sufficiency!
