A Modern Twist on an Old-Fashioned Barn Raising

You may be familiar with an old-fashioned barn raising, where a community comes together, bringing lumber, supplies and manpower to build a barn in an afternoon. Designsensory’s staff collaborated with the PhotoBarn team to put a modern twist on barn raising by building the technically complex site in short order of two weeks. With online orders increasing into the tens of thousands through the help of national promotions such as Groupon, the PhotoBarn team required tech and design help from Designsensory to streamline the online visitor experience and purchase process.

Built on a highly specialized Magento platform, the PhotoBarn site allows visitors to upload photos, select and size materials for printing, and preview the finished custom piece of art. Located here in East Tennessee, PhotoBarn creates handcrafted photo products using your photographs, and prints directly onto aluminum, wood blocks and boards.
