the Designer
"To design is to communicate clearly by whatever means you can control or master."
Milton Glaser

Our Services

We have a passion for visual design.

We believe that design should help communicate your message. Design should be clean and simple. This is critical when communicating online. Too much clutter detracts from your message. We can help you deploy a web site, blog or a social media site quickly and easily.

Web Design

We approach web design from the view that a high quality, professional looking site can be developed for anyone affordably.  Once in place, a web site should be easily changed without having to call your web designer to upload a page, swap out an image or change a navigation bar. While we can develop a traditional web site, we prefer to use a content management system (CMS). called Joomla! This is an open source software system installed on your hosted server. Pages and other elements of your web site can be added or modified using a web browser. Once in place, your web site is easy to use and it becomes not just an online brochure for you or your business but a dynamic tool for communication with the world.

We design and build custom websites tailored specifically for your company's image and budget from concept to completion.

Our work involves:

  1. Organizing site content using a site map
  2. Developing an easy-to-use navigational scheme
  3. Developing prototypes to convey design concept look and feel
  4. Creating page layout, incorporating principles of design for effective communication
  5. Creating graphics such as logos, icons, navigational elements, banners, animated GIFs
  6. Optimizing web graphics for fast downloading and browser-safe color
  7. Writing and/or editing copy
  8. Registering domain name and setting up webhosting account
  9. Submitting completed site to search engines
