Award-winning Architectural Practice Optimizes Image Use

Award-winning Architectural Practice Optimizes Image Use
Jestico + Whiles

Jestico + Whiles is one of the UK’s leading architectural practices, and as such were well aware of the importance of photographic assets.

High end graphics were taking on a more important role for the practice – not only in marketing, but in project reports and for design reference. By consolidating photographic resources into OpenAsset, employees across the company have an easy way to locate and use the best photos for marketing and business development efforts.

SELECTING OPENASSET

OpenAsset is a tool to deliver an effective solution, to a specific problem. OpenAsset was the only product we found that directly did the job.

IMPLEMENTATION AND DATA MIGRATION

We didn’t expect the database to be perfectly keyworded from day one. This is something that evolves with time, but the initial benefits of moving them into OpenAsset were still huge.

We’re very pleased with how the project has gone, and Axomic were a pleasure to work with.

RESULTS

People were becoming lazy, using the same old pictures in their documents, these have been refreshed.

OpenAsset has improved our internal use of graphics and we now have a well managed image library for everyone in the practice to use.

Results

The three things that we loved about OpenAsset was the search, storage savings, and resizing. We were spending a lot of time in Photoshop resizing images and saving another version to our drive. And this is the first software that I’ve seen that can do this for us.

Challenges

Firm-wide access to photographic resources

Less time searching for & re-sizing images

Seamless data migration
