Story

City Return & Earn's innovative solutions, including automated depots and efficient waste management practices, empower individuals to contribute to environmental and community betterment.

Solution

For City Return & Earn, we designed a vibrant and engaging digital experience that reflects their mission and makes recycling feel approachable and exciting. Bold colours, playful animations, and organic shapes bring energy to the site while reinforcing its environmental focus.

To ensure consistency across the UI, we built the design system in Figma, creating a structured yet flexible foundation for typography, buttons, and interactive elements. Under the hood, we used a headless architecture with Sanity and Next.js, allowing us to balance rich visuals and interactivity with strong performance, usability, and SEO. The result is a site that feels fast, intuitive, and visually striking—without compromising functionality.

The Results

Partnering with purpose-driven companies like City Return & Earn is always rewarding. We’re proud to contribute to their mission by crafting a digital experience that amplifies their impact and engages with the local communities that they serve.
