Vivienne Koorland’s website launched in the beginning of this year.   She’s an artist from South Africa who now resides in NYC.   Adelheid Christian-Zechner designed and I coded.

The simple, clean design focuses the viewer’s attention on the artist’s work.  The transition effects were implemented with the prototype/scriptaculous library.  Most of the work went into the content management, which I will not show here.  I came under budget and so gave the client a discount.  Hurray!

On another front, a jazz guitarist Michael Bocian released a new album and asked for a slightly different look for his webpage.  (Here is how it looked before).  The top banner’s color gives a brighter vibe, and upon initial loading, the new CD’s release is highlighted for emphasis.

The picture is blurry for my eyes but Michael wanted it there… who’s to argue with the client?

Lastly, I’m overhauling the website for Peace Action New York State, a non-profit where I’m interning but has a site that needs a serious upgrade.  The whole thing will be re-done using WordPress.  I’m learning a lot about customizing WordPress; it’s super fun and can’t wait to show it off once it’s done.
