thumbnail of website

This is a site I designed, but it has not gone live yet. It is for a charity Golf Tournament for the Plasterers’ and Cement Masons’ Union. It incorporates a Wordpress blog. I created the masthead from combing images of grass and a golf ball on a T. I based the color sceme on a flyer they had for their tournament.

I designed a site for dell’uva restaurant. It is pure css, no JavaScript. I embedded a Flickr slideshow that customers can tag their photos delluvasf and it will show up on the site. I embedded a google calendar so that the owners can use their cell phones to enter events into the calendar.

I designed a site for artist Eleanor Kent.

She has many different types of art that span decades of work. The challenge was to display examples of her work from many different genres.

Web site for Pilates instructor Dano Gregory

Dano Gregori wanted a site to help define his career as a Pilates instuctor. He wanted to break away from being defined as an employee of a particular Pilates studio by defining Dano Gregori Pilates as a brand.

Dano and I met when he bought one of may paintings from a show I had near the Pilates studio he was working at in San Francisco. After taking a look at my web page portfolio, he decided to try me out as a web designer.

The logo and font were chosen before I came into the picture. I encouraged Dano to get an 800 number because his location is more or less in flux. I also encourage him to take pictures of Pilates in action which I could sprinkle throughout his web site for visual interest. The result is the danogregori.com website that you see today.

Web site for Derringer Wallet Pen

Derringer Wallet Pen is my father’s company. He sells pens that fit in your wallet. I gave him a web site to help sell the pens.

For Derringer Wallet Pen, I chose the color scheme of blue (#0000FF) and orange (#FF9933) with a light, almost white backgound (#EEEEEE). Orange and blue are complimentary colors. Orange is friendly and reminiscent of warm sunlight and references the quality wood of the rack that holds the pens. Blue is the color of the sky and the sea. Blue and the light grey background together are the color of the reflected steel found in the pen itself.

The web site is only two pages. It is a direct, easy to load, functional e-commerce site.
