The following projects involve e-commerce (online selling) and other bespoke functionality. Click on the titles or screenshots to open the websites in a new browser window. Since all the websites can be easily updated by their owners at any time, I am not responsible for their content!
Auction Saboteur is an online community for buying and selling 'outsider' art. For this project I worked alongside designers
Beverley Dale, who designed the site's layout, title banner and menus, and
Joff Summner, who created the iconic flag logo.
The site allows members to advertise artwork for sale, browse the listings and buy from other members. In its first weekend over 100 members registered on the site and negotiated sales worth over £6,000.
Cycling enthusiasts Miles & Jenny Wilson commissioned this online shop to turn their hobby into a business opportunity. The site features an extensive catalogue of over 1,000 products along with full shopping cart and credit card payment facilities.
I worked with the clients to create their logo and colour scheme, which are now used for the company's online and offline marketing materials.
This Bristol-based retailer already had a static website, but were looking to overhaul its appearance and bring it up to date. The only specification was to "make it look better than our current site"!
Six months later, I was recommissioned to turn the website into a full online shop with shopping cart and credit card payment facilities.
This site provides affordable online gallery space for contemporary artists. Artists pay a monthly fee depending on how much space they require, and are given their own updateable Space where they can display their artwork.
The simple, elegant design allows visitors to appreciate the artist's work with minimal distraction. However, the artist can also opt for a bespoke page design if they prefer.
The BMSA needed a website to promote their activities and to keep track of tournaments and scores. This site involved bespoke applications programming as well as a quirky visual design.
Custom facilities provided by this site include the ability to create and display tournament trees, record and distribute player contact details, and calculate player rankings based on their tournament results.
