A creative synergy: EM Code and Evolo's Grand Design success
June 5, 2025

For nearly two years EM Code, a digital agency that excels in customer experience and digital innovation, has been the creative and technological force behind Evolo, a trailblazer in renewable energy solutions. Evolo is part of Certas Energy which is one of the UK’s largest independent fuel distributors, supporting homes and businesses across the nation.
EM Code’s journey with Evolo began with a comprehensive design and build of Evolo's Business to Consumer (B2C) website, laying the groundwork for a robust and enticing digital presence. As our relationship evolved, we transitioned to a project-based collaboration, including working on their Business to Business (B2B) website, and handling significant design projects and ad-hoc tasks, showcasing our versatility and ability to adapt to Evolo's growing needs.
When Evolo decided to debut at the Grand Design Exhibition, they turned to EM Code to ensure their brand stood out. The Grand Design Exhibition, known for its focus on innovation in design and architecture, was the perfect stage for Evolo to showcase its commitment to sustainable energy solutions to a diverse audience. Our mission was clear: create an immersive experience that not only captivated attendees' attention but also communicated Evolo's dedication to renewable energy.
Our brief was to design an eye-catching exhibition stand with engaging visuals and interactive animation for Evolos's new solar calculator. Despite the tight turnaround and initial brief challenges, including several measurement challenges, our team's expertise shone through. Our team meticulously corrected errors and delivered a design that truly stood out as a statement of Evolo's innovation and EM Code's creative prowess.
The collaboration was a resounding success, generating substantial-high-quality leads from the exhibition and the solar calculator which allows individuals to calculate potential savings on their specific property. This outstanding achievement was a testament to the power of creative collaboration and the impact of blending technology with design to effectively convey a message.
Reflecting on the project, Diana Goodwin, Designer at EM Code, commented:
"The design team worked together and used their skills in storyboarding and animation to design an interactive video display to attract homeowners to use the "Solar Calculator". This allowed them to get a personalised quote on the savings they could achieve from their own home and the free power of the sun.
The stand was a great challenge as well, visualising the Evolo brand in a 3D walk-through experience, like human UX design. It was also interesting to delve back into old skills and high-resolution print design after working in web design for many years.”
Yasin Akgun, Senior Marketing Manager, Evolo praised EM Code's work, stating:
“We chose EM Code as the agency to help execute our brand vision for Grand Designs, and their impact on our success at the show was remarkable. Their meticulous approach and unparalleled ability to bring a brand to life have been truly instrumental.”
