This user interface was important because not only did it have to visually mesh with the existing brand image, but it had to allow users to easily search for properties with meta tags or by location (Google Maps) and book viewings as well.
This was one of the first CSS websites I ever designed, back in 2006. I was recently asked to make some updates to it and couldn’t resist giving it a full CSS3 redesign. I needed to change the code for SEO and best practices, so I implemented a simple, minimalist design while I was at it.
After blubolt successfully designed and launched the website for The Bertinet Kitchen, a cookery school in Bath, they were approached to create a website for Richard’s consultancy business also.
One of my good friends decided to open up her own modern art gallery in the heart of Bath. I saw an opportunity to not only help with her website need, but also to do a bit of self-teaching.
Work It, Mom! completely rebuilt their site on a new custom framework developed by blubolt and a with a new, wider design.
This project encompasses the freelance HTML email design work I did for Hotelicopter (nee Vibe Agent), a community travel website.
I worked on this project with Chris of blubolt. Chris and I created a homepage design together but the client ended up wanting something completely different, which Chris was able to deliver on by himself. I stepped in to help design the interior pages such as About Us, Corporate, News, Press, etc.
Mouse to Minx was probably the most challenging design in terms of learning curve. The site uses pngs and layers to achieve a “scrapbook” feel, which was relatively edgy mid-2007. The store itself is an English lifestyle boutique and in an interior reminiscent of a traditional tea shop which sells original fashion, accessories, jewellery, books, china and items for the home.
