Horizon Wealth Advisors

A complete reimagining of the digital presence for Horizon Wealth Advisors, transforming their website into a sophisticated yet approachable platform that resonates with women in transition, business owners, and values-driven professionals seeking financial guidance during significant life changes.

The Challenge

Horizon Wealth Advisors needed a digital presence that would differentiate them from traditional wealth management firms and resonate with their target audience of women in transition, business owners planning exits, and values-driven professionals. The existing website followed conventional financial services design patterns, lacking the warmth, accessibility, and innovative approach that reflected their unique business model. They needed a sophisticated yet approachable design that would build trust while communicating their specialized expertise in guiding clients through major life transitions.

Our Solution

We developed a comprehensive redesign strategy that transformed Horizon's digital presence by infusing warmth and humanity throughout the experience while maintaining the professionalism essential for a wealth management firm. The new design implemented a mobile-first approach with specialized user journeys for each client segment, particularly focusing on the needs of women navigating major life transitions. We created a distinctive visual language featuring a refined color palette, typography system, and custom imagery that communicated trust while avoiding the cold, impersonal aesthetic common in financial services. The redesign included interactive tools like the 'Horizon Mapping' visualization and a values alignment assessment to engage visitors and demonstrate the firm's unique methodology.
