challenge

here's the thing about premium lighting: it's never really about the products themselves. it's about transformation. about how the right light can turn a cold room into a warm sanctuary.

klebe lichtideen gets this. they've built two stunning showrooms in bünde and bielefeld where they don't just sell lighting – they create experiences. their team doesn't push products; they consult on how light can transform spaces.

but their website? completely different story.

the disconnect was real:

  • website functioned as a static product catalog
  • zero reflection of their consultation expertise
  • visitors couldn't experience the impact of lighting before visiting showrooms
  • competitors with similar products had more engaging digital experiences

imagine walking into their showrooms and feeling that immediate sense of sophistication, then going to their website and... nothing. just specs and prices.

that's the gap we needed to bridge.

our strategic approach

we didn't just redesign their website. we repositioned how they show up digitally.

the insight? people don't buy lighting fixtures. they buy the feeling of a transformed space.

our strategic pillars:

experience-first navigation
instead of browsing by product categories, visitors now explore by mood and space type. want to create a cozy reading nook? here's how light makes that happen. planning a dinner party? here's the ambiance you're after.

consultant positioning
shifted their role from retailer to lighting design expert. every page reinforces that they don't just sell – they solve lighting challenges.

showroom extension
created digital experiences that mirror their physical consultation process. by the time someone books a consultation, they're already engaged and educated.

premium storytelling
developed visual narratives around transformation rather than features. each lighting solution shows the before and after of how it changes a space.

transformation

from product catalog to experience gallery

before: the old site did its job – technically. you could find products, see prices, place orders. but it felt like every other lighting retailer's website. functional but forgettable.

after: now it feels like an extension of their showrooms. curated. sophisticated. inspiring.

key changes:

  • navigation by emotion: "create warmth" instead of "table lamps"
  • immersive product stories: each fixture shown transforming real spaces
  • consultation integration: seamlessly woven throughout the browsing experience
  • premium aesthetic: finally matches the quality of their physical presence

the whole experience now guides you from inspiration to consultation to purchase in a way that feels natural, not pushy.

measurable impact

business outcomes:

  • 34% increase in qualified showroom consultations
  • improved client quality – visitors arrive better informed about their lighting needs
  • enhanced brand positioning – now perceived as premium consultants vs. product retailers
  • competitive differentiation – completely unique digital presence in their market

digital improvements:

  • mobile-responsive design that works beautifully on all devices
  • integrated e-commerce with consultation booking
  • faster load times and smoother user experience

but here's what really matters – their clients now come to consultations already inspired. they're not starting from zero anymore. they arrive with ideas, with vision, ready to create something beautiful.
