From Chaos to Clarity: Streamlining AFC Furniture Solutions’ Website Architecture
AFC Furniture Solutions is renowned for its innovative designs and exceptional craftsmanship in the furniture industry. However, as they worked to enhance their online presence, they faced significant challenges showcasing their extensive product range. They required us to organize an intricate category structure, design unique layouts for various sections, and manage detailed product pages—all while overcoming the limitations of Webflow’s platform.
Challenges
The website had an intricate hierarchy, starting from main categories and branching into subcategories and product pages. Managing this layout while maintaining seamless navigation was a major hurdle.
Each category and its subcategories demanded distinct layouts tailored to their respective hierarchy levels. Addressing these varied design requirements within Webflow’s capabilities added to the complexity.
The product pages featured numerous sections, each with unique designs. Managing these within Webflow’s CMS field limits while retaining flexibility presented significant obstacles.
Solutions
We utilized multi-reference fields combined with Webflow’s conditional logic to organize the intricate category and product hierarchy. This dynamic structure seamlessly connected main categories, subcategories, and product pages, ensuring smooth navigation and a user-friendly experience.
For the unique layout designs required at each category level, we integrated custom code with Webflow’s built-in features. This approach allowed us to dynamically adjust layouts, ensuring each category had a distinctive and functional design while maintaining consistency across the website.
We incorporated external fields to accommodate the detailed product pages. By strategically creating fields in a secondary CMS and linking them to the product CMS, we ensured all required data was included without exceeding the CMS field limit. This solution overcame Webflow’s field limitations, enabling us to include all essential content while ensuring flexibility for future updates and scalability.
Results
We successfully structured an intricate hierarchy of categories, subcategories, and product pages, enabling straightforward navigation and delivering a user-friendly experience across the website.
We implemented unique layouts for each category and subcategory. Most importantly, we ensured they aligned with their respective hierarchy levels while maintaining visual consistency and enhancing the website’s overall appeal.
We overcame Webflow’s CMS field limitations to deliver product pages with multiple, distinct sections. This ensured all required information was included, with flexibility for future updates and scalability.
The final result was a fully streamlined and dynamic website where all categories and products functioned flawlessly, demonstrating the effective use of Webflow’s capabilities and custom solutions.
We had an incredible experience working with Zealousweb. They truly understood our requirements and brought our vision to life with precision. Their team was not only highly skilled but also extremely cooperative throughout the process. They provided thoughtful solutions and ensured everything was delivered on time.
