Elastic City
The client: Elastic City is a startup based out of New York City. They offer artist-guided walking tours with a difference through New York City. Arrow Root Media handled the management and social media for this project and we collaborated closely.
The project: Elastic City required an e-commerce enabled site where they could sell their walks. The site handles payments by credit card as well as paypal, and has many customizations. Their beautiful design is by Lucha Design.
Scott Hadfield's Blog
The client: Scott Hadfield is a developer with project management & people skills. He lives in Vancouver and blogs about Drupal, travel and other miscellany. He is also my fiancé and I couldn't have his website be naked.
The project: Scott had had his personal blog for a number of years and never once had a personalized design on it. The aim of this project was simply to personalize his blog.
SANGONeT NGO Pulse
The client: This organization, SANGONeT, was founded in 1987 before apartheid had officially ended in South Africa. It is a dynamic civil society organisation with a history closely linked to the social and political changes experienced by this country during its transition to democracy.
The project: NGO Pulse is SANGONeT’s NGO and development information portal. It is a one-stop Internet information resource for and about the NGO sector in South Africa and is a recognised and respected gateway to the development community. The NGO Pulse site is a large and high-traffic website, recently hitting the 1-million unique visitors milestone. The design is by Into the Limelight and my role in the project was to theme the site as per Into the Limelight's design. Development on the site was handled by Park Road.
Evermed Clinic
The client: Evermed Clinic is a new clinic opened in Johannesburg, South Africa. Its aim is to offer high-quality medical care that is affordable to low-income families.
The project: Evermed required a clean-looking corporate website that lists the services that they offer, and gave directions to their premises.
Wedful In-house Themes
The client: Users of Wedful get to select a theme that their site should use. The clients are various couples who are planning their weddings. I built all Wedful in-house themes.
The project: Design drupal themes that worked within the contraints of the Wedful system. The themes had to be robust enough to handle the multiple different ways that people would be using them, and the designs had to try and appeal to a broad spectrum of users.
Citizen Journalism in Africa
The client: This project is funded by the European Union and run jointly by SANGONeT and Hivos.
The project: The aim of the CJA project has been to provide both journalism resources as well as broad-spectrum journalism training to six countries in southern Africa. The website provides both a place for the new journalists to publish their work as well as host all the training material for all the courses given.
Take Back the Tech
The client: This is an activist initiative taken by the APC. I worked together with a team of highly driven and efficient women who were running this campaign and working for the APC. We were dispersed across 5 different time zones.
The project: Take Back The Tech is a collaborative campaign that takes place during the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-based Violence. This is a multilingual website that got put together in record time. My role in this project was to pick up the theming, which had been started and not completed, and add a little polish to the site. The design is by Ezrena Marwan.
The Photography of Tracy Dyan Edser
The client: Tracy Edser is a South African social documentary photographer who has won numerous awards, been featured in magazines and had her work exhibited internationally.
The project: She required a website where she could showcase her work. As with all other artist's sites, the brief was that the design had to be remain very simple and clean, and that the site should be all about her photographs.
Wedful
The client: Wedful is mine and Scott Hadfield's own project, so in this project, the client is me!
The project: The corporate site was designed by Codename Design for Wedful. My role in this project was to build out the site, and then to implement the design onto it.
Hello Pretty
The client: I am the client! This is a website that I built together with Scott and three other friends as our own start-up.
The project: We wanted a very clean and beautiful online marketplace for individual designers and small businesses from South Africa to be able to sell their things online in a centralised spot, and we're the first South African company to build anything like this..
