Introduction

Client and Project

About Lightology Lab

Lightology Lab is a lighting studio and showroom at Misarska 8 in Belgrade. For more than 27 years it has worked where lighting, architecture and interior design meet: it develops the concept, writes the specification, sources the fittings from the European brands it represents, among them Flos, Kreon, Moooi, Marset and Nemo, and sees the installation through.

Its website had not changed since 2018. It listed the brands, but the studio's own projects sat in galleries that no longer loaded, and nothing could be browsed the way an architect chooses a fitting: by category, by brand or by project.

The brief was a new site that sells the studio as much as the products, a brand system to carry it, and a plan to keep it alive on social media.

My Responsibilities

Design, build and brand

Website, content and brand for one studio, from the sitemap to the first month of posts.

UX/UI design

Sitemap, wireframes, desktop and mobile layouts, product and project templates.

WordPress development

The Elementor build, filterable product and project catalogues, the brand index and the inquiry form.

Content and SEO

Copy for every page, one clear heading per page, and titles and descriptions that pair English copy with Serbian search terms.

Branding

The stacked logo, colors and type, the company profile, Instagram templates and the first month of posts.

Style Guide

Colors and Typography

The palette comes from the materials Lightology works with, warm stone, raw plaster and dark bronze, so the photography carries the color and the interface steps back. Every heading is set in Montserrat, in light weights and capitals with open tracking, echoing the thin lines of the fittings themselves. Open Sans carries the reading text, and Urbanist, the face of the logo, is kept for the buttons, so every call to action speaks in the brand's own voice.

Logo design

Logo Versions

The logo is the name itself, split where it reads naturally: LIGHT, OLOGY, LAB. Each part steps up in weight, from Urbanist Thin to Light to Bold, the way a fitting is dimmed up to full output. Stacked, it fills a square for social media, print and the showroom window. Set in one line, it becomes the website header. It works in Umber on light grounds and in Stone over photography, with no second color to manage.

Company Profile

Presentation for Architects and Clients

The website starts the conversation, and the company profile is what the studio sends after it. Fifteen landscape pages carry the same system as the site: the stacked logo, Stone pages, light Montserrat capitals and full-bleed project photography. It moves from who Lightology is and how it works, through the brands it represents, to its reference projects grouped by sector, and closes on the showroom at Misarska 8.

Site Structure

The old site was a set of brand pages. The new one is organized the way clients look for light: by what it is, by who makes it, and by where it has been used. Products, Brands and Projects form the spine, each one filterable and each ending in a detail page. Services, About us, Insights and Contact sit beside them, and every page closes on the same invitation, to bring a project to the showroom at Misarska 8.

Home Page

Desktop View

The home page reads like a walk through the showroom. It opens on a film of a finished interior under one line, The Art of Illumination, then moves through the six product categories, a short statement of who the studio is, the newest products and the latest project, and closes on the invitation to visit. Shown here at full length, top to bottom and left to right.The window below scrolls through the full page.

Inside Pages

Products, Projects, Brands and More

Every listing works the same way: a short introduction, a row of filters with a count beside each, and a grid of photographs with a name and a maker beneath. Products and Projects each end in a detail page with a gallery and the facts a specifier needs. Brands are indexed from A to Z, so a client who knows only the maker can still find the piece. Each preview scrolls through the whole page.

Inquiry form and showroom

Responsive Design

Mobile Version

On a phone the film and the headline still open the page. The category cards become a row to swipe, product grids drop to one or two columns so every name stays readable, and the filters wrap into rows of chips that keep their counts. The inquiry form stacks to a single column, and the menu opens as a full-screen list of all eight pages.

Online Marketing

Plan, Templates and the First Month

A new site only works if people are sent to it. Lightology had 2,440 followers on Instagram, about 2,600 on Facebook, a LinkedIn page with no posts and a Google listing nobody had claimed. The plan gives each channel one job: Instagram shows the work, LinkedIn speaks to architects and developers, Google brings people to Misarska 8, and every post points back to the site. Six templates in the brand's own type and palette, and a first month of posts already written and laid out, let the studio start on day one.

The Plan

Channels

Instagram leads. LinkedIn for architects and developers. Google Business Profile for the showroom. The website is where every post points.

Rhythm

Three Instagram posts a week: a reel on Monday, a carousel on Wednesday, a single post on Friday. One LinkedIn post a week.

Content pillars

The studio, its projects, the brands and products it carries, and practical knowledge about light, one theme for each week of the first month.

What Lightology gained

From the 2018 site to the new one

The previous site had been left as it was built in 2018. What follows is what the redesign gives the studio, and the evidence for each, measured on both sites.

The old lightologylab.com home page from 2018

Before

lightologylab.com, 2018

The new lightologylab.com home page

After

The new site, 2026

Shows its own work, not only the brands

The old project galleries had stopped loading and showed empty tiles. The studio's projects now have their own photographed pages, a reference list filtered by six sectors, and case pages with full galleries, from Ložnička to Crowne Plaza.

Browsed the way clients choose light

46 products in six categories, each on its own page with the designer and specifications, and 97 brands indexed from A to Z. Every listing carries filters with a count beside each option.

Found by people searching in Serbian

The English home page had a Serbian title and description and five h1 headings. Every main page now has its own English title, a description that adds the Serbian search terms, and a single h1.

Readable on a phone

The old site disabled zoom on mobile with user-scalable=0. The new layouts are built for small screens, and visitors can zoom again.

One brand on the site and on social

A thin single-line wordmark became a stacked logo with a five-tone palette and three typefaces, carried into a fifteen-page company profile, six Instagram templates and a first month of posts.

Built on a current platform

WordPress 4.9 with WPBakery, left as it was in 2018, was replaced by WordPress 7 and Elementor, so the studio can edit every page itself.
