View website demo ↗Overview
The existing proof of concept establishes the visual direction and interactive city experience. This project develops that foundation into a complete WordPress website and launches it as the replacement for the current site.
WordPress will manage content and render the website through reusable blocks and templates. The homepage city experience will be integrated into WordPress.
Goals
- Present DiamondCorp’s communities, history, and people through a cohesive website.
- Give prospective buyers, investors, and partners a clearer understanding of the company and its approach to community building.
- Enable staff to manage community content, team profiles, full news articles, and external news coverage.
- Deliver a responsive website with a refined 3D experience and a practical non-3D route to the same community information.
Scope of Work
Homepage city presentation and community selection
Refine the cinematic opening, scroll interactions, four featured stops, information cards, community selection, highlighting, and camera transitions. This is a curated city presentation with supported community views, not free-form map navigation.
Staff can select and order up to four existing communities in the 3D scene for the homepage sequence. Included controls connect those selections to the featured timeline, information cards, and validated camera views. This does not involve adding or replacing building models.
3D performance
Tune loading, rendering quality, memory use, and asset delivery for the existing scene. Validate performance on agreed desktop and mobile devices.
Interior design and templates
Refine About, Communities listing and detail, Team listing and detail, News listing, Contact, and Privacy. Add a full news article template and retain links to external coverage.
WordPress structure and administration
Review the existing installation and configure content structures, fields, relationships, and editing controls for communities, team members, news, and shared information.
WordPress implementation
Build reusable WordPress blocks and templates, connect editable content, and integrate the homepage scene as a custom block.
Content transfer and reconciliation
Back up the existing website, inventory its content and records, and transfer the required content and media into WordPress. Reconcile changes on the current website and validate records, links, galleries, ordering, and relationships before launch to preserve existing information.
Responsive design and accessibility
Refine mobile and tablet layouts, keyboard operation, focus states, reduced-motion behaviour, and access to content without the 3D experience.
SEO, AEO, analytics, and launch
Preserve relevant metadata and URLs, configure necessary redirects and existing analytics, deploy the approved website, and complete launch checks.
Support search and AI answer discoverability (AEO) through crawlable public content, clear page structure, sitemaps, and relevant structured data consistent with visible content. Review search and AI crawler permissions with DiamondCorp and configure available host-level bot controls to reduce unwanted automated access. Private content remains access-controlled; crawler preferences are not security controls. Search rankings, inclusion in AI answers, and prevention of all scraping or misuse cannot be guaranteed.
QA and corrections
Test browsers, content editing workflows, and completed site functionality. Correct defects and check for regressions.
Copy editing
Refine supplied and prepared copy for clarity, consistency, and presentation. Preserve the approved family story and established brand language.
Image preparation
Crop, resize, optimize, and lightly retouch supplied imagery for the approved layouts.
Coordination and handoff
Coordinate feedback and reasonable revisions within the agreed direction. Provide basic editing guidance, documentation, and handoff.
Assumptions
- Included design work refines the established proof-of-concept direction. A full rebrand, new visual identity, or substantially different creative direction is not included.
- The core rebuild uses the existing illustrative models. Replacement with supplied architectural models is available through the separate model integration option.
- Prepared prototype content is reused and reconciled with the current website.
- Standard WordPress editing covers content and imagery, not unrestricted editing of camera paths or model geometry.
- The WordPress installation, hosting, and relevant existing integrations will be reviewed before implementation and scheduling.
- DiamondCorp retains ownership of its hosting, domain, and other service accounts, pays providers directly, and provides the permissions and access needed to complete the work. Ongoing administration is available through the optional maintenance agreement below.
- DiamondCorp will prepare and approve all copy and supply the required imagery and brand assets, with permission to use them. Included copy editing and image preparation refine supplied materials.
Optional Architectural Model Preparation and Integration
CAD $3450 + HST, additional to the core rebuild.
Planned effort: three working days (24 hours). The fee is capped at $3450 + HST for the agreed batch.
- Review architectural files supplied by DiamondCorp or its architectural partners for compatibility.
- Convert and simplify geometry, materials, and textures for browser use.
- Replace placeholder models and align them within the city scene.
- Adjust model-specific camera framing and highlighting, then test appearance and performance on desktop and mobile.
This option covers an agreed batch of supplied models beyond those already available in the base scene, not automatically all 27 communities. DiamondCorp or its architectural partners supply the files. Original architectural model creation is excluded. The batch and compatibility requirements will be agreed before work starts; the fee for that batch will not exceed $3450 + HST. Any additional buildings or work outside the agreed batch require separate approval.
Review and Delivery
Reasonable revisions within the agreed scope and visual direction are included. New features, a different design direction, and model work beyond the selected integration option are separate scope.
The deliverable includes production launch following approval of the completed staging website. A delivery schedule will be agreed after access, dependencies, and review arrangements are confirmed.
Commercial Terms
- Invoices are payable within 30 days.
- Additional work outside the agreed scope is quoted separately or billed at CAD $150 per hour plus HST, with approval before work begins.
- 90 days of post-launch support for defects in the delivered work within the agreed scope. New features, new content, third-party changes, and issues introduced by client edits are outside this coverage.
Payment milestones, the delivery schedule, and final delivery requirements will be agreed with DiamondCorp before work begins.
Optional Ongoing Support
Ongoing support retainer available separately: 10 hours/month minimum at CAD $1000/month + HST. Open to discussing something broader if the project's ongoing needs go beyond that.
Support includes hosting and domain management. DiamondCorp retains account ownership and pays providers directly. Unused hours expire monthly. Additional work requires approval and is billed at CAD $150 per hour + HST. Fixes covered by the included 90-day defect warranty do not consume retainer hours.
