Case studies

Bookstore Walry

Bookstore Walry is one of the last independent bookstores in Belgium and a mainstay of Ghent's literary scene. Besides a thriving bookstore it's also host to regular literary evenings and signing sessions with local and international authors.

Bookstore Walry requested a simple and easy to use site that would provide basic information about the store and frequently updated sections with special offers and information on coming literary events.

Stookstudio collaborated with talented graphic designer/typographer Kris Demey, who was already responsible for all of Walry's print and identity work. The site was well-received at launch, and in its 3 years of existence visitor numbers have practically doubled every year.

Besides the website, stookstudio also manages Walry's email marketing campaigns. These includes invitations for the regular literary events and special offers. The number of subscribers has risen steadily and the regular campaigns have increased traffic both to the Walry website as well as the Walry store.
