The Art of Doing Nothing...
Thursday, 09 April 2009

TheArtOfDoingNothing-logo Clothing label Plain Lazy is one of our longest-serving clients, and we've just built a new site to sell their new range of artwork: "The Art of Doing Nothing". We needed to move fast, and the new site was designed, built and launched within two weeks.

The new site takes a very interesting approach to pricing - for example, thirty identical canvases will go on sale at the same moment on Friday 24th April. The vigilant first buyer will get a bargain at £10, the next will pay £20, the next £30, and so on. Three different designs will be sold in this way, and ninety other canvases will be sold at a fixed price of £60.

It will be fascinating to see how many customers will be watching for the moment that the canvases go on sale, and whether there will be a rush to buy. It's a little tricky to predict the traffic peaks and the server load, but we think we've sized everything correctly.

The Art Of Doing Nothing We usually use Actinic e-commerce software but used Magento technology for this particular project. The Art of Doing Nothing features:-

  • high-quality zoom of all product images
  • full customer accounts functionality with order history and wishlists
  • real-time stock control
  • system administration and order management from any internet-connected device
  • related products suggested on each individual product page
  • single page checkout
