Websites

I was approached by this town planning consultancy based in the south of England to refresh their online and offline communications. Starting off with a new logo design, I then carried this fresh brand across to their business cards and stationery. The website was the final part of the jigsaw and I built this using the Joomla CMS meaning the client can keep it up to date easily. www.creativetownplanning.co.uk

I was commissioned to design a website that showcased the artwork of CK Purandare, an artist whose paintings are a commentary on the contemporary times. He also runs workshops for schools and colleges that tackle issues such as Hunger, poverty and the environment. I developed the website with the Joomla content management system adding extensions for image rotation and comments. Visit www.contextualart.com

Scotland's leading animal protection group, Advocates for Animals, underwent a rebranding in the summer of 2009, so they needed a fresh new website that reflected their vibrant new image and could become a hub for news on animal welfare. Built using the Joomla open source CMS, it is easy for staff to update and is scalable, meaning it is able to match the ambitions of the Advocates for Animals team. www.advocatesforanimals.org

Alan Caldwell Associates specialises in community planning, regeneration and a low carbon future. They work directly with communities and their partners to develop locally based, long term regeneration programmes. Links Street Graphic Design was asked to develop a new engaging website that would help build the business and through an open source content management system allow them to easily update their website.

I carried out this work while employed by Audit Scotland during 2007. My redesign of the website involved the creation of internal focus groups and internal and external useability testing. As an inclusive organisation serving the public, accessibility was a key issue, and this website won an award from the Shaw Trust for its attention to detail in meeting the requirements of people with disabilities. This was a large project carried out on time and on budget. Visit www.audit-scotland.gov.uk

Another campaign website for Scotland's leading animal protection organisation, Advocates for Animals. As with the other campaign websites they needed it to be dynamic, easy to update and to allow online actions. Visit www.primatefreeprogress.org

This website was produced for a campaign joint run by Advocates for Animals and the League against Cruel Sports. They are lobbying the Scottish Parliament to get the use of snares stopped in Scotland so they needed a dynamic website that informed the public and facilitated online actions.Visit www.bansnares.com

Walkerburn is a small community in the Scottish Borders. Their community trust is working on a variety of positive projects to regenerate their area and needed a website to keep the community up to date. They needed a website that they could update themselves and was easy to use. Links Street designed their website in late 2008. Visit www.walkerburn.com

A campaign launched by Advocates for Animals to bring greater legal protection for Scotland's seals needed a campaign website which would inform the public, and also facilitate online actions such as emailing MSPs. The website was built using the Joomla CMS and is easily updated by staff to keep it dynamic. Visit www.lookoutforseals.org

Commissioned to provide a complete design package for Hidden Gems Golf Tours, I designed an information-rich website as well as a logo, stationery and business cards. Business is going well for the client and feedback on the quality of my work has been excellent. Visit www.hiddengemsgolftours.co.uk

I was asked to design a nice, clear website that would promote this borders-based kennel, cattery and animal rescue centre. The money raised by this fantastic place all goes into the rescue and rehoming side of the organisation. The testimonials on the site are testiment to the quality of their accommodation. Since the redesign they have had a big jump in traffic and subsequent business. Visit www.tintokennels.co.uk

Edinburgh-based poets and musicians, Shellsuit Massacre asked me to create a website where they could quickly update fans of upcoming gigs, and also provide downloads of their latest songs. Using an open source (free) content management system, I have produced an attractive website that they can easily keep up to date. Visit www.shellsuitmassacre.biz
