There’s nothing like custom. GSB’s new color palette gives more dynamism to its bold trademark red. Its custom animated icon set highlights GSB’s most useful products. We created new patterns that echo GSB’s logo and call back to the etchings on currency notes and certificates. Together, they create a conversation among themselves, bringing coherency and consistently to the brand.

Before writing the first line of code, our content team audited GSB’s site and product inventory, then worked with bank leadership to formulate a new blueprint that delivers twice the value in half the clicks. Finally, we stocked the site with meaningful, informative content that empowers GSB clients to manage their finances with confidence.
GSB wanted to meet customers where they’re at in life. We created nine life event pages that promote products and tools corresponding to specific situations. This gives GSB clients a starting point to meet their goals, challenges, and circumstances.
By optimizing GSB’s mobile web experience, we brought new depth to the idea of “on-the-go” banking. We fully built out GSB’s new site to excel on the small screen, utilizing responsive states and intuitive navigation to provide a smooth, powerful experience every time. Banking clients can make money moves with confidence knowing they have the power of a GSB branch in their pocket.
