EISA (Expert Imaging and Sound Association) is an international network of 60 special-interest magazines and websites from 29 countries, known for the prestigious EISA Awards — the world’s leading recognition in consumer electronics, imaging, and audio innovation.

Our mission was to build a new digital home for the association — a multilingual platform that connects member magazines, highlights award-winning products, and presents EISA as the global authority in expert technology evaluation.

Challenge

EISA needed a centralized website to showcase decades of award history, highlight their members as expert judges, and provide an engaging way for visitors to explore products across categories and years.

The main challenges were:

• Structuring and displaying complex award data clearly and visually
• Representing 60+ member magazines as part of the judging network
• Ensuring smooth multilingual support for 29 countries
• Building a platform that could grow and scale with EISA’s annual awards cycle

Plan

We approached the project as both a content and UX challenge.
Our goal was to create a dynamic platform where awards, products, and magazines connect through clear relationships — and visitors can explore everything intuitively.

Our plan focused on:

• Designing a custom content architecture for awards, categories, and judges
• Developing interactive tools like an award finder and global map
• Enabling multilingual workflows for editors to easily manage translations
• Building a high-performance frontend optimized for global audiences

We wanted EISA’s website to feel like exploring a world map of innovation — every click leading to another discovery.

Solution

We built a fully custom WordPress site tailored to EISA’s structure and workflow.

Key features include:

• Awards explorer with AJAX-based filters for year, category, and product type
• Interactive world map displaying all 60 member magazines as expert judges
• Flexible CMS architecture for adding new awards, brands, and members annually
• Multilingual interface for 29 countries, with seamless language switching
• Optimized performance and caching, ensuring smooth access worldwide

The design reflects EISA’s authority in expert evaluation while staying approachable and content-focused — letting the awards and brands shine.

Working with the EISA team was a blast — they came with great ideas, and we matched them with even greater code.

Execution

We collaborated closely with EISA’s international team to align content structure, categories, and translations.
Our iterative development process focused on precision — ensuring every component worked across languages, devices, and user journeys.
The platform launched ahead of the new awards season, enabling EISA to manage and showcase results across categories in real time.

Results

• Fast and stable performance across international markets
• Centralized awards database easily managed by EISA editors
• 29-language multilingual system with consistent user experience
• Improved discoverability and engagement through advanced filters and visuals
• Future-proof architecture ready for new award years and categories
