25th October 2011 Brick Restoration re-vamp goes live

We have just re-launched Brick Restoration with their new design.

The challenge was simple. It needed to be simple, clean and show the user exactly what they offer. You can take a look at the website here http://www.brickrestoration.co.uk/

This is also our first site to use TypeKit. TypeKit allows you to chose from a range of fonts that may not be available on the clients computer when the webpage displays. The font is then downloaded using Javascript to the page from TypeKit and displays accordingly.

A simple but effective design which the client is over the moon with!

7th October 2011 Lauren Bates Blog – For all things charity

We have just launched Lauren Bates blog!

We were commissioned by Anna Celeste Watson to take the design and turn it into a Wordpress theme. It was a delight to devleop this theme with the fantastic illustrations for the header by Stu Jones. All the usual functionality was put in place, options for social media using ShareThis and mailing list signup with Campaign Monitor plus all the bespoke bits and bobs behind the scene.

The whole project was a delight and more importantly for great causes.

Take a look at the sites and get involved!

22nd September 2011 ENL – Technical Plastic Mouldings

ENL's new website is live!

Commissioned by //futurestech we built this site using Wordpress as requested. This was a interesting challenge for us as it was the first Wordpress setup using Multisite that we had undertaken.

Multisite was chosen as ENL required 3 different languages and the standard auto-translation plugins did not meet the requirements due to the technical nature of the text. One of the major benefits for the client using wp multisite is that each site works independantly of each other whilst having access to a singular media library.

You can view the website here at http://www.enl.co.uk/ 

Overall the project was a joy and we look forward to working along side //futurestech in the near future!

We have just finished putting together stage one of the Anya17 Opera blog.

The design and HTML/CSS was a charity project carried out by Anna Celeste Watson and DR Solutions for Ben Kaye (the writer of this Opera).

About Anya17

12th May 2011 Chace Catering Cafe – Mewsbrook Park Littlehampton

We have added a new page and news section to Chace Catering's website along with some images. The page has been created to promote Chace Catering's new cafe in Mewsbrook Park, Littlehampton.

We popped down to the new location and took some photo's on a sunny day as the local papers images were a bit dull, the chosen images have been placed on the page and a new banner was also created to further promote the new cafe.

Chace Catering are really happy with the new pages and pictures and have asked us to carry out the same for Seafood & Eat It in Bognor Regis.

4th August 2010 Win A VW Campervan is now live!

We have recently finished Win a VW Campervan's website it is now live!

We were introduced to this project through Anna of ACW which provided the design so we undertook the integration of SagePay and the development of this site as a whole.

Details of the promotion:

Buy a pair of Bollè sunglasses (at up to 27% off RRP) and register for the draw, limited to just 2,500 entries, to win a VW campervan or £20,000 cash.

The promotion is regulated and approved by the Institute of Sales Promotion and the draw will be conducted by an Independent Adjudicator.

Prizes:

First Prize: A brand new Volkswagen Type 2 campervan worth £25,785 (the classic old style bay window camper) or £20,000 cash.

Second Prize: A 3 night weekend hire of a VW campervan (£400)

Runner up prizes: 50 Bushnell Back Track personal GPS locators (gadget to guide you back to where you started from - good news unless you were lost when you started)

So you have a 1 in 50 chance to win a Bushnell Back Track GPS and a 1 in 2500 chance to win the campervan (try googling win a car competition odds and you will see they range between 40,000 - 4,000,000 to 1 odds).

This promotion offers you the perfect excuse to treat you or your partner to another pair of sunglasses (you can never have too many!) and offers possibly the best chance you will ever get to win a VW campervan or £20,000 cash.
