Where Cola Nostra started and what changed.

Starting point

A new beverage brand from Rue de Paris GmbH, so far available in two restaurants only and without a web presence of its own.

Result

A static, very fast brand site in German and English whose colours, type and pattern come straight from the printed can label. Restaurateurs and retailers get in touch through the form.

How we approached it.

Starting point

The can design was finished; the website had to follow the label rather than invent a new look. At the same time the site had to run for years without a database or maintenance.

Our approach

We cut the maiolica ornament from the print file, adopted the label colours as design tokens and built the site fully static with Astro. The contact form runs as PHP with spam protection on the client's web hosting.

The outcome

colanostra.ch loads in under two seconds, looks on the phone like the can in your hand and brings enquiries from restaurants and beverage retailers straight to the inbox.

What the job included.

  • Brand site in German and English
  • Design tokens taken straight from the printed label
  • Seamlessly tiling ornament cut from the print file
  • Fully static Astro build, no CMS
  • Contact form for restaurateurs and retailers
  • Image optimisation with responsive WebP
  • Deployment on existing web hosting

Built with HTML.

Static HTML is the right choice when content rarely changes and maximum reliability counts: no database, no CMS, no plugin updates, nothing that can go stale or break. The result is extremely fast, secure, and virtually maintenance-free.
