The Lighthouse Foundation
Building templates for change: easy, robust, critical accuracy
Meet the Lighthouse Foundation, a beacon of hope for those emerging from neglect and abuse. Timplates joined forces for a monumental task – creating a suite of templates as part of their major rebrand. Here's how we turned templates into tools for change.
The Challenge
Lighthouse had a mission – templates that weren't just easy and robust but critical for accurate information. Used across computers of all ages and platforms, frustration was the enemy. Imagine a Word and PowerPoint dance accessible to all, regardless of tech age.
Our Playbook
Cue the collaboration of the century. Lighthouse, FOR Studio (the design wizards behind the rebrand), and Timplates – a trio destined for template greatness. Face-to-face meetings kicked off the design tango, followed by a dance of ideas until the templates were not just born but thriving.
Why we liked it
Talking directly to the template users – that was the secret sauce. It wasn't just about aesthetics; it was about function. With Lighthouse in the mix, every tweak, every detail, served a purpose. A seamless process, from design dreams to real-world functionality.
We loved working with the Lighthouse team, who are passionate about what they do. The fact that the new templates made their lives so much easier means we have contributed, in a small way, to this project, which we wholeheartedly endorse.
