Gency

Making
digital
personal

Gency. Odd name. It’s agency, without the ‘a’. Why? Well we want to be an agency without the angst. An agency without the attitude. An agency without the apathy.

We’ve been working in the web for a long time, and we’ve learnt a lot along the way.

We’re a small agency, and we don’t think there’s anything wrong with that. We hope you agree.

What we do

There are a lot of people who can build websites. And that includes us. But when you need something more than a brochure site, then that’s when we really start to get exited. We love building web apps - getting our hands dirty on databases, pondering the placement of pixels and unlocking the ultimate user interface.

However we can’t do anything without your help. We won’t just get a list of your requirements and build something. We’ll spend a lot of time talking with you to identify underlying problems, not just the symptoms, and then together we can come up with solutions.

We work with a range of technologies when building sites and apps. These include (but are not limited to) PHP & Laravel, React and GraphQL. And we're still big fans of the classics: HTML, CSS and Javascript.

Early Start Discovery Space

University of Wollongong

The Early Start Discovery Space is a great interactive educational space for kids located in the grounds of University of Wollongong. To improve the experience of their Marketplace installation, we designed and developed a cash register & payment application. Delivered using pairs of iPads, it allows one child to act as a shop keeper and scan or lookup items from the store, and another child to select the required notes or coins to pay for their shopping.

Colours are used to encourage healthy food choices, and images of Australian notes and coins provide the opportunity for kids to learn the value of each currency while practicing their math skills - there's no change given from these checkouts, so they have to get it right!

Aon Hewitt Financial Advice

Aon Hewitt had the need to communicate their product offering to financial advisers interested in joining Aon’s financial advice group. Rather than just presenting this as a simple brochure site, Aon wanted a more interactive experience for the advisers, similar to how the information would be presented via a slideshow. After discussing the desired result with Aon’s marketing team, we realised that what they were after was a ZUI - a zoomable user interface. This allows the user to dive deeper into content as they like, whilst providing a more engaging journey.

With some handy javascript and SVG use we were able to deliver this to great effect.

Cruisea

An app developer approached us to provide designs for a dating app he had created. Taking his existing functionality, we redesigned each screen to provide a more intuitive and memorable experience.

Brosnans Investigation Services

This project involved taking an off-the-shelf template and configuring it to match Brosnans’ branding. We then extended the design with some custom styles, applied treatments to photos to ensure they complemented the site, and formatted all page content to make best use of the layout features available.
