his page
provides details of just a few of our past and present projects. It shows a selection
of
styles and some of the considerations behind our web site designs. The actual
sites
can be visited by clicking on the screen shots below.

delicates.co.uk offers
high quality designer lingerie in a wide range of sizes. Garments
can be selected and ordered online, with full facilities for specifying
measurements and colour options. The site is database-driven - allowing
the site owner to alter the range of garments with ease via a specially
designed control panel. Secure online payment is provided via
the well-respected Worldpay facility.
 www.balfourfrance.com
offers a selection of villas and farmhouses in the South
if France. The site has search facilities to locate suitable properties
in the desired locations, along with availability searches for date,
number of people and holiday dates. Behind-the-scenes facilities
allow the site owner to add and change properties and to maintain
up-to-date availability information with ease.
 Chiltern
Valley Wines are a private vineyard and brewery in the Chiltern
Hills, just outside of Henley-on-Thames. The website provides information
about the services they offer, details of the location, with its
cellar shop and information about tours and tastings. There is
also an on-line ordering facility for the excellent wines and
ales. We also created the web site for their sister company - Luxters who
organise events at the picturesque Old Luxters Barn.
A
schoolboy's dream, the web site for Brooke
Kensington Sports Cars is "graphics rich" with plenty of
enticing pictures of fast and exciting cars. The site also provides
technical
information on their cars for a world-wide customer base, together
with regularly updated details of their classic car stock. Despite
the high graphic content, the pages load surprisingly quickly,
due to care in the creation of the image files. There is basic
provision for on-line ordering of sports options and tuning parts.
They also have a site dedicated to the new
Volkswagen Beetle.
 The Kossway site provides
information about the extensive range of gaming machines provided
by the company. This is an example of a simple "online brochure"
site.
 Another simple
site, www.martynboycephotography.co.uk displays the work of a wedding
photographer. The site design is kept clean and simple, with the facility
to view larger versions of photographs as desired.
 The
ITP Group commissioned us for a range of somewhat diverse sites, although
all maintaining a corporate theme. A player in the technology
industry, ITP offer computer and telecom equipment, plus a range of
innovative products or "boys' toys"! They are also Europe's largest
empty printer cartridge dealer. As a contrast to their corporate group
site - www.itp-group.com, take a look at www.wavebuster.com, www.buyitoverthenet.com and www.bodyperkseurope.com!
 www.MBAinfo.com offers
the world's most comprehensive database of MBA programs, containing details
of over 2500 programs in more than 120 countries. The challenge of this
site was to provide a simple yet effective database search facility to
permit a visitor to quickly find an MBA program from anywhere in the world
to suit their requirements. The search results provide detailed program
overviews and details of the universities and/or business schools offering
them.

The primary objective of the Important
Kitchens site was to provide an on-line catalogue of their free-standing
country kitchen furniture. Two versions of the catalogue are available,
designed to accommodate different screen resolutions. The site also
provides a location map and links to wider area maps and train times
for planning a visit to the showroom.
 ESP's
site demonstrates yet another contrast in style. This site was designed
for an up-and-coming band from the West Midlands hoping to make a big
impact on the music scene. In addition to general information about
the band, the site contains their live dates schedule and sound clips
from their debut CD. The sound clips utilise the RealAudio
player to provide streamed music of different sound quality, depending
on connection speeds. The clips can be heard almost immediately they
are selected, avoiding the wait for a large file to be downloaded. The
list of live venues is constantly updated and is refreshed programmatically
to remove older dates and to grey out dates which have recently passed.
Although the site has rich graphics and photos of the band, images are
painstakingly kept to a reasonable file size to avoid lengthy downloads.
 www.tridentdisplays.co.uk was
originally undertaken as a makeover of an existing site for Trident
Microsystems Ltd. The new site was commissioned in conjunction
with a new catalogue
for
their
range of LCD display panels and monitors. The strong colour theme
of the site was employed to compliment the style of the catalogue. The
site has undergone several transformations over the last few years.
We build, host and manage a number of sites for the Trident
Microsystems group of companies and we have also created an email newsletter
management system for their extensive mailing list.
 Another
music related site belongs to The
Boogie Band. With plenty of RealAudio files from their albums, this
is another site that'll have you tapping your feet.
 Wargrave
net is the local community web site of a small village, nestled
on the banks of the Thames. The site provides information about local
events and services and contains a directory of local organisations
and a village diary, amongst other things. Many of the pages are generated
programmatically to ease the provision of frequently changing, up-to-date
information. Several strong design themes run through the different
areas of the site, such as the boating club, local school library appeal,
parish church and even the local branch of Petsearch!
 Acorne
Sports offer activity vouchers for a wide range of experiences
throughout the UK. If you fancy a flight in a glider, a drive of
a racing car, parachuting or even a massage treatment, activity and
gift vouchers can be bought online via the secure ordering facility.

Although it closes outside of the season, as Christmas
approaches you can take a look at the Personalised Charity Christmas
Cards
site of Freestyle
Impressions! Increasingly successful since 1998, their web site
provides the ability to view their card ranges, specify card layout
options
for greetings,
signatures, typefaces and so on, and the ability to request samples.
The simple, step-by-step processes are provided by sophisticated
programming
behind the scenes on the web server. The site also offers the facility
to order cards online using a secure credit card transaction.
 and
finally... something common to the sites we host is comprehensive statistical
information regarding site activity. We provide details, not just of the number
of hits to each page, but items such as the keywords visitors have used at
the search engines to find the site. Other information, such as the different
web browser used, assists in ensuring the site is designed to appeal to the
optimum cross-section of visitors and activity by date and time can also be
observed. Information regarding visitors' domains is also collated.
Our standard service also includes registering the sites with all
of the major search engines.
e change the selection of sites listed on this page from time to time, to provide a variety of designs. The sites above do not necessarily demonstrate all of the techniques we use. Each site is carefully designed with the client and tailored to their specifications. If you have a requirement you would like to discuss with us, please do not hesitate in getting in contact.
e would be delighted to help you!
