Projects
Readernaut
My little side project that tries to make the process of reading a little more interesting. It continues to evolve so a description would probably become outdated fast. I suggest you just go check it out :)
Roles: Designer / Developer.
Mobile Lawrence.com
Lawrence, Kansas has a great entertainment site, Lawrence.com, which keeps Lawrencians informed about all the music, drink specials, movies and news going on. I thought it would be nice to spruce up the mobile edition. Everything degrades, blah blah, the real trick to these mobile projects is contextual information.
Roles: Designer, HTML/CSS, and Django template developer.
Lawrence.com
Lawrence.com is the local entertainment site for Lawrence, Kansas. I tried to open up the look of the site so the editor could 'skin' the homepage, band pages, blogs, and podcast pages whenever they felt necessary. This allows the site to change with time and hopefully never fall out of style.
Roles: Designer, HTML/CSS, and Django template developer.
Everyblock icons
Everyblock consists of various content types—police calls, building permits, restaurant reviews and many more—aggregated on a city block level. To make the UI easier to parse icons represent each content type.
Roles: Icon designer
Lawrence Journal-World
This is an ongoing piece. I was responsible for the initial redesign of LJWorld and currently help with news features and enhancements.
Roles: Designer, HTML/CSS, and Django template developer.
Christopher Elbow
The concept behind this design is to make the beauty of chocolate center stage while providing the best possible shopping experience. Much thought went into layout and placement so people have the opportunities necessary to purchase this delicious product.
Roles: Designer, HTML/CSS, and Rails template developer.
Authentic Films
Kevin and Kate wanted a portfolio experience that reflected their authenticity in the film industry as well as their unorthodox location of Cleveland, Ohio. This being my first foray into Flash I wanted to achieve an interface that was memorable and unique.
Roles: Designer, Flash, and Actionscript developer.
Mobile Marketplace
Lawrence Marketplace in its desktop form contains a great deal of content, so for the mobile version I had to decide what was the absolute necessity and cater to mobile situations. While the site takes advantage of the iPhone it scales down to less capable devices.
Roles: Designer, HTML/CSS, and Django templates developer.
