Mobility Nationwide - wheelchair accessible vehicles
Mobility Nationwide - the UK's leading supplier of quality used wheelchair accessible vehicles. We'd been looking after Mobility Nationwide for a number of years, following the untimely death of the original web designer. This year we got to develop this design in some new directions, to keep it at the fore front of its field.
The site is built around a custom content mangement system that displays vehicles in rotation on the home page. Once in the site the visitor has a custom sidebar that provides a visual reminder of the vehicles they have looked at, to aid comparisons. Further, the system will select possible alternatives to the vehicle they are looking at, so they can quickly review relevant stock.
Sheffield Synthesis Solutions
Sheffield Synthesis Solutions is built in the popular Joomla! open content management system, to permit the team to update pages as required through the project.
The site is based on a design by John Gelder of Eleven Design, to harmonise with printed literature prepared for the team.
Eleven Design
Eleven is a graphic design consultancy that creates intelligent and effective design solutions for print, web and brand identity. It was a great pleasure to work with them to realise their design for their own website in the Joomla! Content Management System (CMS).
This site is the antithesis of mundane CMS systems. The dynamic layout and menu structure come together beautifully to earn Eleven new commissions!
Mobility Vehicles Ireland - wheelchair accessible vehicles
Mobility Vehicles Ireland - supplies wheelchair accessible vehicles throughout Ireland. This site was developed with economy in mind, being based on the design of the site for one of its parent companies (Mobility Nationwide), and is search-engine optimised to minimise advertising costs.

The site includes an integrated WordPress based news delivery system, which is readily updated by the client's staff. A novel addition to this is a simple headline fieed into the home page, to help keep the website fresh and attract visitors to the latest news stories.

Lochaline Dive Centre
Lochaline Dive Centre in the WordPress CMS: the Centre offers friendly accommodation in the Sound of Mull, Scotland. The dive centre's location gives access to some of the best shore, scenic and wreck dives in the UK, as well as to some spectacular scenery and wildlife on land!
We designed the orginal website, and have subsequently extended this to include multilingual pages, a wildlife gallery and a news section driven by the very popular WordPress engine, which allowed Mark and Annabel to easily update this portion of the site.
Over the last couple of years WordPress has developed into quite a competent Content Management System (CMS); and as Mark and Annabel had found this to be pretty easy to use, we brought the rest of the site under the same management system this summer.
