Info.
The Chitra Collection is a private collection of historic teawares.
Lilo was asked to redevelop their current WordPress website in order to expand their online reach and make the collection accessible to a wider audience. This involved improving the promotion of their events and exhibitions, as well as educating their audience about the importance and history of tea culture – but in a fun and insightful manner.
The website would appeal to a varied audience – from those who have a passing interest in art or tea history, and to to those with a more academic interest in the collection.

The Brief.
For the collection, a new inventory system was implemented – with simple and advanced search functions so that products can easily be filtered from the hundreds of items. Advanced search filters included:
- Artist / maker
- Item name
- Place of Origin
- Age
- Material
To finish off the project, styling changes were made to alter the original designs supplied to Lilo.
