We decided to refresh our web site’s look.

Something a little simpler and cleaner.

The blog hasn’t been done yet, but that will come soon….

We just launched phase 2 for American Construction Management’s web site.

Phase 2 consists of a password protected site for project management on new construction projects. Each user gets their own id and sees information specific to their role and projects.

Used a fair amount of AJAX code on this site to dynamically build pages and sections of pages based upon user-interaction.

First phase of project was to rebuild their front-end ‘world-facing’ site.

We went live this week.
Second phase will be a password protected site for sharing information on their construction projects with their sub-contractors and customers.

This second phase will be written in PHP accessing MySQL for data relationships.

Its been a busy week.  We didn’t do the design side of this project either, but again worked with another firm to divide the project up. We did the entire HTML/CSS/PHP build however.

This is just phase 1 – there will likely be a phase2 with a lot more content.

Turned out nicely.  http://www.earthwisedrinks.com

Our latest web site for TJC Custom Homes LLC of Raritan, NJ at http://www.tjchomes.com

This site features areas highlighting this builders designs, land development, commercial construction as well as their custom home construction.

Site uses lightbox to show before and after interior and exterior renovations also.

A Bailey Plumbing relaunched today.  This was not a total redesign, more of a refresh with a new menu structure, new content and whole bunch of new graphics (from iStockphoto.com).

Flash on entry page still needs updating… client pushed this to post-launch of new site as they were eager to go live.

We launched mugstate.com last week.  This is a fairly simple front-end to a Zazzle store utilizing their RSS feed.  The site is focused on selling coffee mugs.  They don’t have a large selection yet, but are planning on adding more over time.

For the site we made a very simple template focussing on coffee and coffee beans with browns as the predominate color on the page.

Just launched a new site for O’Neill Bookkeeping Services, LLC – http://www.obsnj.com

Took a little while to get this fairly simple site live due to some FTP access problems. The client didn’t have the information readily available and it took longer to get it live than it took to build.  Not the first time I’ve encountered these types of issues.

This was a very simple and inexpensive web site. Not much content and no functionality. Just plain HTML with stylesheets and a few simple graphics. The client wanted something very straightforward and in keeping with their profession.

Keep meaning to update this site and end up going off and doing something else…..

Latest client that we’ve built a site for is http://www.cprights.org – a Washington DC health care reform related group.  We worked in collaboration with another designer who’s client this was…. we did all the programmatic work creating the stylesheets, building the HTML and PHP to create the front-end and the admin interface to manage the content.

The other designer provided the initial Photoshop images and the wireframes…..  Worked out pretty well.

Project worked out very nicely for us and was conducted in two phases. The initial phase was a light version of the site to meet a press launch of the organization. The second phase included more functionality and a larger page layout for the extra content.
