Main Fields
Web Design
Our passion is for creating highly
effective, stand-out, world-class, web sites for builders. The kind
of site that gives serious home buyers the feeling of being there so
when they visit the development there are no surprises and they are
ready to buy.
Generally our web design follows in
phases:
 |
Strategy and theme (phase
1) - Includes initial web site design
and structure, assembling existing materials and theme refinement. |
|
Collection, Programming and
Testing (phase 2) - Includes Materials
scanning, web site structure implementation, html, database
programming, Java applet and cgi-bin programming and coding,
graphics optimization, contact and survey form design and live
testing, debugging and corrections |
|
Implementation and Roll-Out
(phase 3) - Includes: Meta-tag
development, modeling and refinement, doorway page development,
search engine submission, category specific list site submissions,
review and three months web site maintenance (varies by program). |
Digital Photography
We found early that a limit in
creating full builder web sites (i.e., those with a virtual tour) is
the lack of good quality photos for each model and feature. As a
result, we include all photographic work in our proposals.
Once taken, photography is enhanced
and saturated, bordered, shaded and optimized for web site use. Most
photography is completed in a single day and photographs are available
on-line within three to four working days. All photographs are
provided the client on CD-ROM in case they have future photo needs.
Web Graphics
We provide a full range of web
graphic services including:
|
Image compositing, clean-up and
correction |
|
Scanning (photos, slides or
negatives) |
|
Web logo and thematic design |
|
Image enhancement, saturation and
optimization |
|
Static and rotating banners |
|
Macromedia Flash |
|
Original graphics such as maps,
renderings, etc, |
Banner Design
We can design a custom banner for
your website, or for use as a display banner normally used on sites
you would like to exchange banners with. There is a difference between
the two:
1.
Business banners: does not have any restriction on width, height
or file size. This type of banner is also known as a logo.
2. Exchange banners:
limited to a specific width and height restriction and in the size of
the file that was built to create it. The standard banner size right
now is 468 pixels wide by 60 pixels high. The file size
is also limited to 10k or less including any animation.
We often work with our client's
current advertising agency or web developer to optimize graphics for
the web. This can include restyling and optimizing logos, floor
plans, renderings and existing brochures.
