Spaceworld Play Centre — Website Design & Photography

Project Overview

Spaceworld is a children’s play centre in Liverpool offering a large soft-play frame, electric space buggies, a dedicated toddler area, party packages and on-site restaurant facilities.

The project involved designing and developing a completely new website that captured the energetic, colourful personality of the venue while making essential information easier for parents to find.

Alongside the website design, I visited the play centre to produce a complete library of original photography, allowing the finished site to accurately showcase the venue, facilities and experience.

The Challenge

The website needed to appeal to both children and parents.

Visually, it had to feel exciting, playful and full of personality. From a practical perspective, parents needed to quickly find admission information, explore party packages, check the food menu and complete an online booking without unnecessary confusion.

The challenge was to balance a bold, space-inspired visual identity with a clear and trustworthy user experience.

Photography

The project began with an on-location photography session at the play centre.

Having access to the venue while it was empty provided the freedom to photograph the play equipment, interiors and facilities from a wide range of angles without interrupting customers.

The resulting images became a central part of the website, giving visitors a genuine preview of the venue rather than relying on generic stock photography.

Design Approach

The visual direction was inspired by the Spaceworld name and the energetic atmosphere of the venue.

Bright colours, playful typography, bold graphics and large photography were combined to create an immersive design that immediately feels relevant to a children’s entertainment brand.

Despite the expressive visual style, the page structure remained simple and organised so parents could quickly understand what the venue offers and find the information they need.

Webflow Development

The website was designed and developed in Webflow, providing the flexibility needed to create a more distinctive experience than a traditional template-based website.

The responsive build was carefully adapted across desktop, tablet and mobile, ensuring that the visual identity, photography and important calls to action remained effective at every screen size.

Webflow also provided a flexible foundation that could be updated as the venue’s packages, pricing and information changed.

User Experience

The site was structured around the main actions visitors are likely to take:

• Learning about the play centre

• Checking admission prices

• Viewing party packages

• Making an online booking

• Browsing the food menu

• Reading the rules of play

• Downloading party invitations

• Finding contact information

The booking journey is explained through a clear three-step process, helping customers choose their date, time and party size before proceeding to payment.
