Critical Systems Testing – Site Launch

We just deployed the new website for CriticalSystemsTesting.com, a Boulder-based firm that works with national companies to improve the reliability of their critical facilities.  CST’s projects include data centers, command and control centers, network operation centers, laboratories, medical centers, etc.

We redesigned their logo and branding.  With that complete, we designed a new website and implemented a WordPress back-end, to allow them direct control over website content.

New Website Design Contracts

We just signed a contract to implement the redesigns of BolderStaffing.com & BP2recruiting.com for the well-established recruiting and staffing company based here in Boulder, Colorado.

In addition, we will be designing a new product line website (FLXXrainwater.com) for Front Range Precast Concrete, another Boulder-based company with 50 year old footprint in Colorado.

Lastly, we have just assumed the new webmaster roll for NanniesOfTheRockies.com, a local web-based business that matches nannies & families with children, amongst other services.

Silverback Imaging – Site Launch

After two months of design & development we finally deployed the new version of silverbackimaging.com. The new site features a public front-end website, a custom-skinned version of the CS Shopping cart, and a wordpress blog.  In addition, we developed a custom flash video player to showcase product demos and how-to videos.

For this project, Silverback provided the starter designs, and we converted and implemented these mockups into the final site and sub-sites.

Addiction Exchange – Site Launch

We just launched AddictionExchange.org, a new website and integrated blog for a Boulder-based clinical psychologist.  Although this was one of our smaller sites, we had yet another chance to bend the WordPress content management system to our custom front-end design.

In addition to site design and maintenance, we are managing a small pay-per-click campaign and crafting the website keywords for SEO optimization.

A New Decade Of Design

It will be interesting to see how design, particularly website design, evolves over the next ten years.

Couple of hopes/requests/wishlist items:

  • Get CMS systems to play nicely with custom databases & custom applications
  • Figure out way of unifying user login/accounts across multiple website applications
  • Clean URLs system for customs sites
  • Style Inheritance in CSS
  • Death of IE6 and the end of IE6 CSS overrides 

Should be an interesting decade for design!
