New Website: Carter’s Kids

Posted on November, 29, 2011 by - 0 Comments

When Carter Oosterhouse wanted a website for his national charity, Carter’s Kids, he knew he could get any web designer he wanted. But it was important for him to support businesses local to his home town, Traverse City.

The executive director of Carter’s Kids found us. We talked about what their goals were, what information they wanted to present, and how the site would evolve in the future.

This is what we came up with:

www.carters-kids.org

We pulled together a lot of different types of media, connected everything to Carter Oosterhouse’s social media streams and hooked it up to Paypal with an easy to use “Donate” system that allows people to give money to the charity online.

New Website:The Floral Underground

http://www.thefloralunderground.com

We created this website for one of the country's top young floral designers, Derek Woodruff.  He's also one of the stars of Logo TV's new hit reality show "The Arrangement" – a contest that pit floral designers against one another.  Derek was the favorite contestant of the LA Times.

He's fun to work with, makes BEAUTIFUL floral arrangements, and we're happy with how the site came out.

This is a simple portfolio site to show off his work.  It is built on a Content Management System so that Derek can update it.  We're using Flickr to pull in the photos and have some Youtube videos embedded from his online show – Flower Porn.

New Website: Dino’s Pizza in Traverse City, Michigan

Posted on May, 24, 2011 by - 0 Comments

We designed and built this simple but cool, brochure style website for Dino’s Pizza in Traverse City, Michigan. We whittled down their navigation to four basic pages, ultimately creating an online tool to help people order pizza as much as a website.

Visit Dinos Pizza’s new website: www.TCDinosPizza.com

They’re very happy with the results. (“It’s awesome!” – was one quote). In addition to a great new website, Dino’s Pizza also has great pizza and is the only place in Traverse City that delivers pizza for free. Call ‘em up and tell the owner, Bill Nall, that you love the site!

We made this website for our new podcast with famous internet radio personality, Jim Harold. It’s called Weird News Radio.

New Website Launch: Landscaping by Huffman in Traverse City, Michigan

Posted on April, 20, 2011 by - 0 Comments

We created this hand-coded site for Traverse City, Michigan landscape designer Randy Huffman at Landscaping by Huffman. 

Hand-coding the site in HTML, as opposed to using a content management system like WordPress, let us include A LOT of digital bells and whistles, which you can see if you go to the site.  There's little animated treats on every page.

Randy's work is gorgeous and he wanted a gorgeous site that would make his business stand out among the host of other landscape designers in Traverse City, Michigan.  He couldn't be more pleased with the results.

We launched this new web site for esoteric author and researcher Chad Stuemke.  Chad's three books cover a wide range of topics including sacred symbolism embedded in the layouts of urban spaces. 

The site was basically a frame and typographical work to support Chad's artwork, articles and videos (he's developed a wide range of work over the past few years).

We also added a small e-commerce element that allows people to purchase Chad's books online.

New website design by Traverse City Web Design for New York City Jazz Violinist Aaron Weinstein

Just finished this site for New York City based Jazz Violinist Aaron Weinstein.  Aaron wanted something very simple that incorporated an illustration made of him into the design and also expressed his fun side.  We chose to create a minimal New Yorker style look and feel.
