Work
I don't really do web design so much any more - I firmly have a marketing hat on these days (and it's a pretty snazzy hat, let me tell you...).
Below is an archive of previous sites I've worked on.
For this site I designed the look and feel based on the artwork supplied by the band, and all the html and css is mine too. All based on the Textpattern CMS/blog engine, which is flexible enough to work out very nicely for a musician/band/artist’s website.
For toopure.com, I designed and built the whole site basically from the ground up. The existing site was based on a cms that we utilised again, but the whole look of the site was redone to fit with the labels current style.
A very simple page to promote the american release of the Prodigy’s best of album. Nothing too fancy, although I think the design came off quite well, but it was nice to see it feature on the front page of MySpace.com.
The site for the wonderful Truck Festival – the best festival in the world. I did the design, html+css and the cms intergration using Textpattern.
This site was an attempt to try and move away from the flash sites we had done in the past – still presenting the same experience, but in a much more assessable way. All the snazzy effects were done using the scriptaculous javascript effect library.
For this site – a competition site promoting the White Stripes’ single “The Denial Twist” – I did all the design, as well as the html/css.
Winner of “Best Artist Promotion” at the 2006 Digital Music Awards.
Other then this site, this was pretty much the first Textpattern site I did – it works really nicely to do band websites, as it’s so flexible. Another all in design-html-css combo, and freelance at that.
For 4ad.com, the website of the prestigious label (who have the Pixes, TV On The Radio and The Breeders on their roster, to name but a few) I was responsible for all the html/css and large proportions of the look of the site.
The main design for the home page was done in conjunction with v23 – designers of most of 4ad’s artwork for the last 25+ years – who came up with the look and general layout, which I then propagated across the site.
I was responsible for designing several themes for Sandvox version 1, both the CSS and design for the following built-in were mine:
- Aqua (the default)
- Brown and Green
- Grey Leaf
- Neo News
- Open All Night
- Rounded Blue
- Simply Purple
- Sunburst
- This Modern Life (the theme used on the Karelia site)
- Trippy Bubbles
