Inspired by the arcades of London and the quartiers of Paris, and building on Canterbury’s iconic character, The Colombo is Ōtautahi’s pre-eminent retail and entertainment precinct. The world-class fashion, beauty, home and lifestyle boutiques are joined by an independent cinema offering the latest in art-house, festival, and blockbuster films in comfort. All of The Colombo’s residents share an innovative attitude towards retail, and connect the people of Canterbury with pioneering labels from local businesses and world-leading brands.
SOMO Creative and The Colombo have been collaborating for a while now on design and digital marketing, so it was a natural fit for us to design and build the shopping precinct’s brand new website. We put The Colombo’s resident businesses, and the amazing brands they sell, front and centre with beautiful imagery in a custom interactive header. This is backed up by useful information, news, and a directory of stores, all in an easy-to-navigate and well-designed site structure. Everything is customisable in the back end, and we’ve made it easy for The Colombo to update any images and details anywhere on the site, any time. The directory is beautiful and user friendly, to help visitors find exactly what they need.
