We’re excited to announce the launch of the Phileleftheros News Stand, a powerful digital archive that brings together more than 70 years of newspaper issues from Phileleftheros, Cyprus’s oldest and most widely read newspaper.
This project is more than just a website. It’s a digital bridge between the past and the present, giving readers, researchers, and historians the opportunity to browse through decades of headlines, stories, and moments that shaped Cyprus and the world.
📚 A Historical Archive, Digitally Designed
The goal of this project was clear from day one: to create a fast, intuitive, and easy-to-navigate online platform that respects the newspaper’s legacy while offering a modern experience to today’s users.
Our team focused on web design and development that prioritizes:
- Seamless archive navigation by dates
- Clean and accessible layout, even for large amounts of data
- Fast performance across all devices
- A secure system for access and subscriptions
Working closely with the Phileleftheros team, we developed a custom platform tailored to the needs of both casual readers and professional researchers.
🏛 About Phileleftheros
Phileleftheros is not just another newspaper. It holds a central place in Cyprus’s media history. Since its founding in 1955, it has been reporting the most important stories of the island — and beyond — with accuracy, depth, and independence.
Building a digital solution for such a well-established brand meant striking the right balance between honoring tradition and offering the usability people expect from modern platforms.
Our work in website design and development in Cyprus is always guided by the needs of the brand and its audience — and this project was no exception.
🔧 Behind the Scenes: Custom Web Development
We built the Phileleftheros News Stand using a lightweight and scalable framework to handle thousands of digital pages. Special features include:
- Date-based search and filtering
- Secure login and subscription handling
- PDF rendering with zoom and mobile support
- Fast content delivery and optimization
By combining strong UX/UI principles with robust backend development, we were able to bring this vast archive online in a format that’s both functional and user-friendly.
