The Challenge

The Orchard needed to turn a detailed Figma design into a high-quality WordPress website that:

  • matched the design pixel-perfectly
  • remained easy to edit by their internal team
  • supported rich animations without hurting performance
  • loaded fast and met modern PageSpeed standards

The site also needed to reflect the agency’s premium, performance-driven positioning.

Lottie Animations Implementation

To enhance visual storytelling without compromising performance, we implemented Lottie animations across key sections of the website.

The animations were carefully integrated to:

  • match the original Figma motion design
  • remain lightweight and performant
  • work smoothly across devices and screen sizes
  • avoid negative impact on Core Web Vitals

By using Lottie instead of heavy video or GIF assets, we preserved fast load times while adding subtle motion that supports the brand’s premium feel.

Impact & Results

  • PageSpeed score of 92/100
  • Fast load time (~1.2s) despite rich visuals and animations
  • Marketing team can update content independently using Elementor
  • Clean, maintainable setup ready for future growth

Technology & Approach

  • WordPress with Elementor
  • Performance-focused front-end implementation
  • Lottie animations for lightweight motion
  • Clean structure with long-term maintainability in mind
