Homepage of Blukicks
Blukicks is a small company based in San Francisco that designs and sells shoes inspired by sea life. They had been selling their products locally (hand-delivering, even) but wanted to create an online presence and store.
When we started a project they already had a design and part of a coded site, but the markup was convoluted and they wanted it integrated into a CMS. I used Pulse CMS, a great little product intended for small static websites. The shop is powered by Shopify, and I created a custom template to integrate the shop with the site's look and feel.

Homepage of MindSmack.tv
MindSmackTV is an award winning media production company based out of New York City, whose clients include MTV, VH1, Food Network, Time Warner Cable, and SyFy. Their previous website was developed in Flash, but they wanted to update it with a new design and take a web standards approach.
The many videos throughout the site use the WebM format and the Video.js HTML5 video player for fallback to Flash if WebM isn't supported. iOS devices are served an MP4 version of the video. The site also uses a Wordpress blog with a custom theme developed to match the rest of the site.

Tom Lew's "performance" gallery
The goal of this weekend project was to redesign Tom Lew's portfolio in a way that fit his new goals for the site. He wanted the visual focus to be on his work and make it feel more like an online portfolio than a full website and blog.
The "still" section of the site uses the Flickr API to automatically populate the navigation from a collection of sets, as well as load all the images. The "motion" section is populated from a simple JSON file.

Homepage of Tom Lew's portfolio.
Tom Lew is a producer of online video content for the Miss Universe Organization, as well as for freelance clients. He highly admires minimalist design, and wanted a very clean, sleek portfolio site to display his video, photography, and house a blog.
The blog is powered by Wordpress, and uses a custom theme I developed to match the look of the rest of the design. The "still" section of the site uses the Flickr API to load thumbnails automatically from certain sets Tom specified. The thumbnail list will update automatically as he changes the photos in these sets.

Homepage of Patrick Schneider's portfolio.
Patrick Schneider is a talented up and coming web designer, who happens to be responsible for the design of this site. He wanted a portfolio site that felt slick like a Flash site, but instead using modern Web Standards technology. Based on his design, I developed this three page micro site to mimic the no-refresh feel of a Flash site that he desired.
In order to ensure the accessibility of Javascript-disabled users, as well as the SEO necessary for a personal portfolio, the Javascript content is lazy loaded in the background after the initial page has been displayed. The navigation initially points to a static version of each page, and these links are overridden with Javascript after the lazy load is complete.

Homepage of Paradigm Title Group
I designed and developed the front-end and back-end of this site for Paradigm Title Group, a title insurance company in New Jersey. This project was an upgrade of their previous site, redesigning it (while still matching their existing branding) and adding an online ordering system with an administrative backend.
The site is powered by the CodeIgniter PHP framework. Its ActiveRecords and built-in validation were extremely useful for the site's massive 50+ field order form. The administrative backend is an order management and reporting tool, heavily utilizing AJAX to allow real-time reports of order history.
