Talk Direct - Case Study
Talk Direct is the retail division of the FTSE 100 property giant Land Securities.
The Brief
Land Securities set out to revolutionise the property market with Talk Direct - offering one of the UK’s largest retail property portfolios, direct to retailers and agents. Liquid Light was appointed to make it happen online.
Talk Direct asked Liquid Light to build a dynamic retail-orientated website, which would help Talk Direct to work closer with retailers and agents, by providing details of all current voids, shopping centres and future developments online.

The Challenge
To develop a website that would enable Talk Direct to manage its huge property portfolio online required a bespoke content management system. It needed to handle diagrams, interactive dynamic maps and floor plans as well as text, with a simple interface for non-technical Talk Direct users. We had to create a clean, open feel that would appeal to retailers, agents and prospective property development investors.
The Result
A beautiful ‘retail’ site built in flash, which pulls information from a comprehensive property database - driven by a powerful bespoke CMS with a simple interface. The site has put retailers in direct touch with Land Securities and now acts as a management database for property portfolio managers across all Land Securities departments.
Whilst the site is flash driven, it is also accessibility compliant (Priority 1).
