Word­Press theme for a con­struc­tion business

This site was launched in June 2010.
I cre­ated the design in Pho­to­shop, then coded it as a Word­Press theme. I used the Gen­e­sis frame­work from Stu­dio­Press.
I used the WP-cycle plu­gin for the slideshow, which I mod­i­fied to add the cap­tion text.
The font is Fer­tigo Pro, and I used Cufon and @font-face to embed it.

Word­Press theme for a cross­fit fit­ness club

The owner of a cross­fit fit­ness club asked for a cus­tom Word­Press theme design for his web­site http://crossfit.ca
Cross­fit being a “rough” activ­ity, I used some con­crete tex­tures, and a dom­i­nant orange color to give it an ener­getic feel­ing.
I also cre­ated a graphic show­ing some cross­fit girls in action.

The theme is a cus­tomiza­tion of the The­sis Word­Press theme.

NOTE: the design has been mod­i­fied since I deliv­ered it to the client (the top right graphic)

Web design for a com­mu­nity website

This website’s tar­get audi­ence are high school stu­dents look­ing for infor­ma­tion about prepar­ing for uni­ver­sity. As the name of the site is Tree­house com­mu­nity, the client wanted to fea­ture a Tree­house illus­tra­tion.
I sug­gested a full page fixed illus­trated back­ground . The illus­tra­tions were found at istock­photo, and I inte­grated the tree­house in with pho­to­shop.
The client was very pleased with the out­come, and I pro­ceeded to cre­ate a Word­Press theme, based on the hybrid framework.

Web design for a tech­nol­ogy con­fer­ence event

An Amer­i­can uni­ver­sity was in need of a redesign for its annual con­fer­ence, cen­tered around tech­nol­ogy.
A require­ment was to use the col­ors from the already exist­ing logo.
I really like how this turned out, it has a mod­ern and sleek look and feel to it.

Web design for a book author

A famous amer­i­can author was in need of a fresh design for pro­mot­ing his new book.
I found inspi­ra­tion in the sub­ject of the book which is about a sea voy­age. I used boat imagery and marine colours and effects.

Web design for an edu­ca­tion portal

A col­lege edu­ca­tion por­tal was in need of a web­site which would focus on con­tent, with a con­tent heavy home page. That is why I went for a mag­a­zine lay­out.
The back­ground tex­ture gives a chalky feel­ing that rem­i­nesces the chalk­boards.
Notice the use of the appro­pri­ate icons for bul­leted lists.

Web design for an event center

An event cen­ter was in need of a design for its web­site. The key ele­ments were its unique sit­u­a­tion in a har­bour, and that was to be reflected in the design, and should also appeal to women con­sid­er­ing this venue for their wed­ding.
I think the light col­ors and cen­tral image con­vey the appro­pri­ate feel­ing to the vis­i­tor.
