Faces: Content Management (Monopolise).


Our design and content management solutions provide a new face to a new font website.

Faces, a leading typeface distributor, needed an e-commerce website that was both functional and aesthetically pleasing to its customers. Since Faces serves the design community worldwide, any company undertaking the development of Faces' website would be subject to the very critical eye of its peers.

The Brief



Our brief was to deliver a client-facing e-commerce-driven website as an integral part of our client's business to sell its range of font-based products, as well as a digital image library. The e-commerce site had to offer a high level of security with full order tracking capabilities.

The Result



We custom-built a new website www.faces.co.uk using our cost-effective content management system (CMS), Monopolise, to provide Faces with the flexibility to update its 16,000-plus product range of fonts and images. We provided a simple front-end design with intuitive product search and shopping facilities, including a secure shopping cart and payment gateway through Commidea. This was coupled with a powerful back-end system to allow Faces to manage products, track order history and manage extensive pricing/VAT and supplier account areas, as well as publish special offers across the site.

The Lasting Benefits



Since the inception of the website, Monochrome has worked very closely with Faces, adhering to budgetary restrictions and Faces' desire to retain control of the site on the one hand and the company's aspirations to 'grow' the site on the other.

Since Faces has merged with AGFA monotype, its product range has changed significantly, and the flexibility of the content management system has allowed the company to integrate new font collections (from a handful of fonts to collections that run into thousands) easily and without any downtime.
