State Center Development Association
Website Design + Copywriting + Local Identity Strategy
📍 State Center, Iowa
State Center has always been the heart of something special — rich in charm, community pride, and deep roots. But until recently, it didn’t have a central online space to bring it all together. The State Center Development Association reached out with a clear mission: make it easier for locals and newcomers alike to connect, explore, and grow with the town.
Sometimes the best time to build your web presence is when you’re ready to do it right.
Summoning the Strategy (aka What We Did)
We created a custom Wix website and Brand Colors that finally brought State Center’s Main Street spirit online. With thoughtful copywriting, historic but modern forward brand colors, a blend of editorial typefaces and modern sans serif fonts, and a user-friendly layout, we prioritized clear pathways for:
Business support and local economic development
Tourism features like the Rose Festival and downtown events
Community involvement (volunteer signups, donations, and memberships)
Showcasing State Center’s story, values, and small-town quality of life
Every detail was designed with intention — from the navigation structure to the call-to-action copy — ensuring the site feels welcoming to new families, long-time residents, and prospective business owners alike.
The Final Form
Today, the SCDA website serves as the town’s digital front door. With a polished civic identity, refreshed visuals, and a future-ready backend, it gives State Center the online presence it’s always deserved.
The best part? The entire site can grow as the town does — with scalable sections for projects, business directories, and public announcements.
