Clients' Web Sites
The following links point to sites that I designed and
implemented. (Clicking these links will open a new browser

Working with The Fund for Peace, we are creating this website for
the TRUST Program, a program of NATO's Partnership for Peace. The
goals of TRUST are to help Eastern European countries with the
process of demilitarization, particularly in destroying armaments
and ordnance.
This is a high-profile, international project where the website is
expected to be a central element in facilitating communication between
participants and constituents (both sponsoring countries and local
populations). I also designed the logo for the TRUST project.

The Fund for Peace is a non-profit organization devoted to finding
practical ways to help end war and alleviate the conditions that
lead to war. They had recently gone through a significant reorganization
and developed new focus for their efforts, and wanted a web site that
could grow into a tool for their projects. Since I first started
designing and managing their website, we have been through two
redesigns to freshen the look and streamline the organization.

The Pansy Forest is the rather fanciful name of an on-line store
selling an unusual assortment of premium hand-made gift items. (Yes,
I am one of the crafters.)
The on-line catalog is built around an installation of the open
source commerce software system called Zen Cart. I installed and
configured the software, populated the product database, designed
the store-specific graphics, and manage the store.

Ars Hermeneutica is an emerging, nonprofit scientific-research
organization, specializing in analytical consulting and scientific
public-education. The strong graphical design suggests a young,
vital, forward-looking company based on solid principles.

Bearotica and Bears on Bears are two books, edited
by Ron Suresha, and published by Alyson Books in 2002. Ron wanted
to publicize the books and create an on-line presence for himself.
What started out in 2002 as three separate sites has now been
combined into one site that gives Ron an outlet for promoting
all of his writing work.

Americanonyx is a small importer of specialty, home accessory
products. They are preparing to market a line of premium lines:
bedding, curtains, and tablecloths, all decorated with delicate
embroidery. For this site we needed a catalog of all the
products that displayed each to its advantage, but was easy to
navigate. We wanted the website design to feel like "a cool
spring evening's breeze." The website is built as an on-line brochure
for business-to-business marketing, rather than an on-line
consumer store.

The AFSDC is a non-profit organization, the American face of
St David's Cathedral, Pembrokeshire, Wales. This site was to
provide some information about the group, and assist in a
significant fund-raising initiative with the Cathedral.

| |
VIA Mailing & Printing is a small, full-service printing and
mailing company located in Alexandria, Virginia. I did not design
or implement their website; rather, I am working with them to
help develop new marketing ideas and refine their message.
Some of those results will manifest themselves on the
website.

Wavix is a young, high-technology company specializing in digital
satellite communications. This version of their web site is meant
as an informational tool, with dual emphasis on education and
marketing.
Sadly, Wavix is no longer operational, so this link now points
to an archived, abbreviated version of the original website.

|
| |
Soy Today was a new dietary supplement, based on a soy derivative.
The web site was primarily commercial, with dual goals of informing
the public about the benefits of its product and encouraging them
to try it. Although the layout and organization is identical to the
AFSDC site, note what a difference a few changes in graphic elements
can make.

Invent-Tech is a company devoted to helping individual inventors
find a market for their inventions. This was a re-design of their
existing website, updated to improve its utility in informing
people about the company and the products it is promoting.

This is a personal web site for Jeff & Isaac, an expression of their
interests and personality. It also is a testbed for new design ideas,
so its look is apt to change frequently.
|
|
|
| |
This site is here for historic reasons, rather than to make a statement
in graphic design (for which it is distinctly not distinctive). This was
the first web site I ever put together, mostly while I was working
as Project Scientist on the second Space-Shuttle flight of
the Zeno experiment. Incidentally, I also wrote all of the content.
|
Web Page Designs
Some design ideas never make it to the client's home page,
and web sites change over time. In this section I've included
some web-page layouts that fall into these categories.
|
|
| |
This was a concept page for a project that didn't develop. The
WWASP is an umbrella organization concerned with helping teens
in difficult circumstances. Our approach was to develop an image
that was simultaneously relaxing and reassuring, principally
as an information conduit to the parents of the teens.
|
|
Wavix, Incorporated
(original home-page design)
|
| |
In an earlier phase, Wavix included buoy technology as a product
line, and this original home page for its site reflected that. The
nature of the business has shifted and its site has been updated
accordingly, but this design was worth showing.
|
Document Design
The following are documents designed for print distribution,
in different formats. Each had a distinctly different purpose,
which is expressed in its design.
|
|
| |
This was the first report generated by The Fund for Peace since its
reorganization, so it deserved special treatment to accomplish its
extra responsibilities. The printed report had sixteen pages, printed
in two colors, with a 4-color cover; the excerpt contains about half
of those pages.
|
|
|
| |
This was a proposal from a high-tech services company to Amtrak. The
excerpts show only the cover and first few pages of a more-than
100-page proposal. The design brief was for a look that would be
eye-catching and distinctive, but on the convservative side.
|
|
|
| |
This is a simple promotional flyer for the Soy Today nutritional
supplement. In addition to the design and layout, I also developed
the ad copy for this purpose. Some of that material later appeared
in the Soy Today web site.
