What we did

Custom Website Design & Development

The Alberta Petroleum Marketing Commission is a public agency that was created under the Petroleum Marketing Act in 1974. It operates as the Crown’s agent in marketing its royalty share of resource production, and supports the development of value-added activities in Alberta’s petroleum sector.

Our team was given the exciting opportunity to provide the Alberta Petroleum Marketing Commission with not only its inaugural visual identity but to also craft a bespoke custom designed website to launch alongside this newly created branding.

The new custom website for the APMC was designed to promote the authority and expertise of the APMC across the global petroleum industry, while providing new opportunities to communicate their roles and mandates to a wider range of audiences.

Supporting these goals, the new homepage features clickable tiles with unique icons, for easy and prominent access to key information about the roles and mandate of the APMC. Further down, a featured projects section provides an eye-catching display of project-related statistics, and a custom map of Alberta that helps promote key projects and locations for the APMC.

Building a Strong and Memorable Visual Identity

Our team further iterated on the concepts, applying feedback to inform revisions and refinements over several review sessions. The concepts were ultimately narrowed down to a distinct final design that was simple, modern, and reflective of the APMC's authority and expertise.

Our team then developed custom stationery, business cards, as well as PowerPoint and Word templates to provide consistent presentation and promotional materials. The final result is a comprehensive visual identity that reflects the APMC, while providing a professional and unified image to stakeholders and the public.

 

The Box Clever team led us through a full branding and custom website design process with professionalism, creativity and patience as we worked through how we wanted to be seen to the world. Right from go-live they have been highly responsive in support of our evolving needs.

Custom Timeline Feature

A unique feature of the new website is a custom organization timeline. This timeline feature enables the APMC to convey its knowledge and authority within the petroleum industry by sharing its long history from 1974 to today. APMC staff can create timeline entries supporting expanded descriptions, custom imagery, and links to resources. Sticky navigation offers an easy and engaging way to navigate on-demand throughout the timeline.
