Project Overview

We started this project from the shoreline, building the website from scratch alongside the passionate GOWRS team.

Through collaborative brainstorming and many “sea-crets” shared, we crafted a website that balances urgency and hope – a beacon for wildlife lovers and conservationists worldwide.

The design process was an ocean of creativity, fuelled by client insights and a shared commitment to protecting nature’s most fin-tastic creatures.

Our Approach

Designing GOWRS’s website was like charting a course through the vast digital ocean – we aimed to create a site that’s both engaging and easy to navigate, ensuring visitors don’t get lost at sea.

Using vibrant, nature-inspired visuals and playful oceanic touches, we built a responsive, friendly interface that invites users to dive in, learn, and get involved.

Our approach combined clear calls to action with educational content, helping GOWRS cast a wide net for supporters and volunteers.

GOWRS moves swiftly and skilfully to respond to urgent global wildlife emergencies, and KNOWN was commissioned to capture that energy in an informative website that truly makes waves.

Our development delivered a site packed with features that make waves, including:

A dynamic About page highlighting GOWRS’s mission and global impact

Real-time updates on rescue missions to keep visitors hooked like a fish on a line

Educational resources about marine and terrestrial wildlife conservation

A volunteer and donation portal to help users jump aboard the cause

An engaging blog filled with stories that reel in readers and spread awareness
