Department Five
Crafting the new digital shopping experience for a bold Italian brand.

Department Five is an Italian fashion brand founded in 2007 by Mario Cangini and Nicola Silvagni that blends workwear with rational functionality while drawing inspiration from the rock music scene. In 2021 they launched their e-commerce website and I took care of its web development while working closely with designers. The challenge was to embed the brand personality into an e-commerce type website, with this in mind the website has designed been developed to be bold yet functional, with a brutalist layout that is however rationally structured into a grid and few interaction effects intentionally subtle but strong.
