Launched this month is the new site for ecoInsulate Ltd, an environmentally friendly insulation company. The company has a pretty cool insulation system which is water-based and chemical-free: apparently one of the most efficient insulation systems on the market today.

We wanted to develop something that stood out a bit, so built a visual around the 'Morning, Noon and Night' slogan: some PHP/Javascript wizardry built a system which changes the look of the site depending on the time a user visits (you can bypass this by clicking on the little icons at the top of the page).

A nice little project, and one which we're hoping should bring in lots of new business for this up-and-coming company.

It's been quite quiet in the blogosphere for the last few weeks. In my defense, the day after my last post, my third daughter Emily was born, and we've been coping without very much sleep for the last six weeks.

Workwise, I'm pretty booked up for the next couple of months. I'm accepting freelance work from mid-March onwards, but realistically I won't be taking on any more contracts until April. I've got two database/tracking systems in development, three ongoing website development contracts, a video project and a couple of ongoing support contracts to take care of.

There should be a couple of new sites appearing in the portfolio over the next few weeks, so check back soon - if you're looking for a freelance web or media designer, book now before the rest of my spring schedule gets booked up...

After a long development cycle, we finally launched JBA Seed Potatoes today. I've been working with JBA for a good three years now, building the original website and doing loads of design work for them over the years.

The new site matches the branding we worked on back in August and is complimented with a new Guide which I worked on with Hoggett Creative over the autumn. We kept a few styling tweaks from the original JBA website but built a whole new organisational system in the back end to make updates easier, and streamlined the ordering process using a new user flow and liberal use of Javascript for client interaction.

We'll be working together in the new year to roll out updates as an ongoing project, so keep an eye out for more exciting developments in the tuber world...

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all my clients, past and present!

I've been working on a client database for a long-term customer for the past few weeks. I can't give out too many details on the project for data sensitivity issues, but the database is built to let the company access client data fast and securely online.

It's been built on a MySQL database with two layers of password protection for security, and uses jQuery effects to speed up user interaction time. An interesting project, all in.
