Platform
Webflow
Serenbe, a renowned planned community in Atlanta, is dedicated to sustainability, wellness, and a profound connection to nature. Their real estate website serves as a crucial platform to showcase properties to potential residents and homebuyers. With the last site refresh dating back to 2014, Serenbe recognized the need for a visual and functional update. They sought a modern design that aligned with their values and allowed for easy content updates without developer intervention.
Problems we solve
Driven by the desire to maximize conversion rates for interested buyers and renters, Serenbe aimed to enhance user experience and provide access to up-to-date property information. They recognized the importance of a seamless online experience in attracting and retaining potential residents.
The Process
Sfera Studio, in collaboration with design partner Concept Theory, embarked on a comprehensive redesign and migration project for the Serenbe Real Estate website. The team leveraged Webflow for its advanced capabilities and flexibility, enabling a smooth transition and empowering Serenbe to manage their site independently. Wireframes provided by Concept Theory in Figma served as the foundation for development, ensuring alignment with Serenbe's vision.
Frontend development focused on translating wireframes into responsive Webflow designs, with meticulous testing and feedback cycles to ensure optimal performance across devices. Backend development involved researching and selecting the right tools, including Finsweet for custom multi-filter functionality, Memberstack for user authentication, and Pipedream for syncing user information with Salesforce CRM.
The Outcome
The updated Serenbe Real Estate website boasts a fresh, cohesive look that aligns with the broader Serenbe brand. It features enhanced functionality, including user account support, improved search and multi-filter capabilities, and seamless integration with Salesforce CRM. The migration to Webflow has empowered Serenbe to keep property information up-to-date independently, without the need for developer intervention.
The Impact
The new website has significantly improved the user experience for prospective residents, allowing them to easily discover and filter properties, save favorites, and book appointments directly through the platform. For the Serenbe team, managing and updating properties has become more efficient through Webflow's editor view. Additionally, the integration with Salesforce CRM provides valuable insights into user preferences and property interests, enabling Serenbe to tailor their offerings more effectively.
In conclusion, the collaboration between Serenbe, Concept Theory, and Sfera Studio has resulted in a successful website redesign that not only meets Serenbe's immediate needs but also sets a solid foundation for future growth and development.
More Case Studies
Magic Dates
Magic Dates is a curated event platform based in Germany, helping users discover unique experiences for couples and singles. As the platform expanded, the team needed a more scalable filtering system that could adapt to different event types. Their existing setup using Finsweet v1 was limiting, so they engaged Sfera Studio to upgrade to Finsweet v2 and implement a CMS-driven custom filter that would allow for dynamic filtering per event without developer input.
Grab a Bin
Grab A Bin is a skip bin rental service in Whangārei, New Zealand, offering waste removal solutions for households and businesses. With a basic booking setup already in place, the client wanted to revamp their website and booking flow to better match a competitor's more refined experience. Working with Sfera Studio, they transitioned to a CMS-driven solution using Webflow and Foxy, enabling users to input their postcode, view accurate pricing, and pre-book bins with card verification—without needing complex backend development.

Sabah International Convention Centre
Sabah International Convention Centre (SICC), one of Malaysia’s premier event venues, partnered with us to modernize their aging website. They needed a site that better represented their scale and professionalism while remaining easy for their internal team to manage. We rebuilt the entire site in Webflow, delivering a clean, modern interface along with a user-friendly CMS structure that empowers them to publish and manage events with ease. The new site also features clear overviews of their event halls and facilities, tailored to appeal to both local and international organizers.
Sales Play Book
The Sales Playbook team first came to us in 2023 for help fixing a filter issue on their existing Webflow site. What started as a quick fix turned into an ongoing collaboration. Since then, we’ve become their go-to partner for continuous improvements—building new pages, implementing design changes, and resolving functionality issues as they arise. Our role has evolved from support to a long-term development partner, helping them scale and refine their platform as their content and audience grow.
What x When
What by When is a creative studio that thrives on exploration and artistic experimentation. As their brand direction evolved, their website needed to reflect a more mature and intentional identity. With a complete Figma mockup already designed, they partnered with Sfera Studio to rebuild the site from scratch. The goal was to transform the mockup into a fully responsive, Webflow-powered website that honored their creative process while remaining easy to navigate and visually engaging.
Garden on the Wall
Garden on the Wall, a biophilic design company based in New Jersey, partnered with us to elevate their Webflow site into a more dynamic and functional platform. While much of their website was already developed, they needed our expertise to implement more advanced interactivity, enhance the site’s flow, and create a password-protected Designer Hub. This restricted area would allow designers from approved firms to gain access via a passcode system, intelligently managed using email domain validation and automation tools like Memberstack and Zapier. In addition, we improved responsiveness across all devices, added smooth scroll-based animations, and refined the overall user experience.
Koma Sliders
Koma Sliders, a Korean-American food truck and catering business based in Australia, partnered with us to restructure and expand their existing Webflow website. The goal was to enhance the site’s clarity, highlight their diverse catering services, and streamline quote collection using HubSpot CRM. We implemented a clean one-page homepage redesign, created dedicated subpages for Weddings, Birthdays, and Corporate catering, and introduced new categories like Public Events. The revamp also included dynamic components like an interactive timeline for “Our Story,” static chat icons, and embedded Instagram feeds—delivering both a better experience for users and a more efficient workflow for the business.
