end-to-end branding & website
Court Bound
Squash e-commerce AND education website
PROJECT FEATURES
PROJECT OVERVIEW
- From conception to execution, CourtBound was branded and crafted end to end on WordPress. Integrating seamless e-commerce functionality via Stripe and Google Merchant listings, alongside curated content through APIs, the website offers a dynamic squash experience. Cloudflare ensures optimal performance, while WordPress block editing facilitates streamlined development.
BRAND STRATEGY
- Developed business name and brand positioning that reframes squash as a modern, dynamic sport — balancing its traditional, elite perception with a more accessible sense of energy, joy, and athleticism through the “Court Bound” identity.
- Created a distinctive visual identity built around an integrated “C” and “B” monogram, incorporating squash court geometry and racquet forms, with a forward slant to convey motion and competitive intensity.
- Established a refined yet energetic colour system inspired by squash court markings, using bold red accents for vibrancy and dark secondary tones to communicate sophistication and set the brand apart from conventional squash identities.
- Shaped the overall brand essence around movement, precision, and modern sport culture, positioning Court Bound as a fresh interpretation of squash that feels both high-performance and culturally relevant.
WEB DEVELOPMENT

- Cloudflare integration for optimal performance; hosted on Noetic Media’s cloud servers for reliability.
- API integration and e-commerce functionality powered by Stripe for dynamic content and secure transactions.
CONTENT STRATEGY
