A complete design process in 6 steps. The discovery step where we use User Experience Research. During workshops we take time to build an efficient digital environment.
Information is the next key element to organize: sitemap, data model, user workflows…
We prototype the main interfaces from a low fidelity wireframe to a realistic interface ready to pass any usability test.
Long-term vision of a digital design system that respects your brand identity.
Our new website allows us to be more in line with the new consumption habits of our public. An institution like the ORW with artists from all over the world who are our first ambassadors, must offer a modern and visually "sexy" interface. It is an essential business card abroad.

The workshops were a great collective and participative experience for the team. Supervised but very interactive, they helped us greatly to start identifying our target audiences while allowing us to reproduce and continue the exercise even after the website was launched.

FAQFrequently Asked Questions
What technologies are used with Minotaure ?
Our framework Minotaure is deployed in the WordPress environment.
The WordPress CMS (Content Management System) is the leading CMS in the world today, and is recognised for its many advantages:
Open source solution with the largest community
Specifically adapted to content-oriented web platforms
Designed natively to extend all functionality
Since its creation, Spade has been exploring and exploiting all that WordPress has to offer. Installing its Minotaure tool, which makes the CMS even more flexible for web administrators, was the next logical step. Working on WordPress, which is constantly being improved, updated and extended, requires the development of tools that are also open, adaptable, and scalable in the short and long term. This ensures that we (and you) are working with tools that are always up-to-date and designed to work in harmony.
Minotaure has been developed with the following technologies:
Minotaure is a global method that integrates all the stages of a project’s life. This tool allows you to create a web platform of any size (infinite number of pages and articles) with an impeccable level of finish and a fully customised design.
At the development stage and depending on the type of website you’ll need, different types of content (presented in the form of blocks, which we also call widgets) are created. The widgets are the bricks of your future site which, assembled in one way or another according to your needs and desires, will create the different pages. Each of these bricks has its own design and configuration.
These different content blocks are divided into 3 packs corresponding to their potential level of complexity in terms of functionality and development:
Starter: always present, they cover the basic functionalities of the site (see the prototype of these basic functionalities here)
Premium: added as needed, they provide more advanced features (see their prototypes here)
Tailor-made: unique and custom-made to perfectly match your wishes
This approach guarantees a number of points:
Speed of creation and deployment of a web platform
Creation of sites of variable size and geometry (infinite number of pages and articles)
One or more sites managed from a single location with style harmonisation
Extensive customisation of elements and their association, ensuring uniqueness and differentiation from the competition
As a client, what are my direct benefits?
Direct implication of participants to the project
From the very beginning of the project, you’re involved in the creation process of the web platform. Minotaure is more than a visual support, it’s a social journey.
Clear steps
Each step can be clearly defined and is part of a “Kanban” view shared between all parties involved.
Efficiency is key
By “tool adjusted to the needs of the project”, we mean that your platform should perform well, no matter its size. Minotaure gives you access to each component so they can be optimized for technical performance (website reactivity, page rendering…) and for SEO reasons as well.
A well-defined environment
No “black box” with Minotaure. At any point in time, we make it transparent. The environment is documented so other teams can take on the project if that’s what suits you.
