Corporate Website Design

I need a full-featured website that presents our organisation in a professional, corporate style while giving members a place to engage and purchase our digital publications. The core build should include:

• Public pages: “Who We Are”, “What We Do”, “Knowledge Gateway”, “EDs”, and “Standards”.
• A discussion forum that lets registered users start threads, comment, and receive notifications.
• A news section I can update quickly to highlight announcements and articles.
• An e-commerce storefront dedicated to eBooks, complete with secure checkout, automated file delivery, order history, and basic sales reports.
• A unified registration / login system so visitors create one account that works across the store, forum, and any gated resources.

Design must feel polished and corporate—clean lines, subtle colour palette, easy-to-scan typography—yet remain flexible for future growth. I’m supplying all text, images, and eBook files; you’ll focus on structuring, styling, and integrating everything so I can manage it from a single dashboard. I’m open on whether you use WordPress, a custom stack, or another platform—please recommend the route that delivers reliability, security, and straightforward maintenance.

Launch will be considered complete once the site is live on our hosting, payment processing is running, user registration works end-to-end, and I’ve had a brief walkthrough of the admin area.
