Web design by CookandKaye
specialists in online education, mapping
and scientific websites
Our core business is web design. We work to current W3C international guideleines for HTML to produce attractive, durable websites that have the broadest possible compatibility with modern browsers. Typically we test against five browsers on three operating systems before releasing any of our sites into the wild!
Our sites are flexible and can be delivered to a range of platforms including mobile devices and the printed page.
Most of our sites are designed and built entirely by us, but we also offer a code testing and verification/correction service to other design houses. Please contact us if you are interested in this service.
Below are some of our most recent projects, you can browse some of the others by category in the website design menu, or view an archive of our websites from the last 20 years in the endorsements section.
Websites
The Ring O'Bells, 2026
The The Ring O'Bells was one of Lancaster's favourite pubs, with a large beer garden in the centre of town. It has being extensively re-furbished after a number of years of neglect to recover its place int he heart of the city.
The design is based on that of the George and Dragon (repeat business is always reassuring!), both pubs are now in a distinctive green livery.
The George and Dragon, 2021
The The George and Dragon is one of Lancaster's oldest pubs, and offers visitors and locals a friendly atmosphere and fine ales!
The design puts the main offers on a single page, with a simple top menu jumping to the relevant sections of that page. Pretty much all of the page content - banners, text, beers are customisable, and driven by an extensive (but easy to use) administration section. The public page content is marked up with 'rich results, providing meta-data to improve search engine performance.
Society for Natural Sciences, 2020
The Society for Natural Sciences (SNS) is a professional body for scientists, educators and students working across the discipline boundaries of science. It offers an accredited degree programme, seminars and conferences to its student and academic membership.
Our blog post introuces some of the security policies adopted for society websites to protect member's data:
UK Society for Biomaterials (UKSB), 2019
The UK Society for Biomaterials (UKSB) is a non-profit organization working to develop novel biomaterials to tackle current clinical needs for medical devices, prosthetics and for regenerative medicine. Their membership interests include medical materials science, biosensors, biomechanics, biocompatibility, tissue engineering, and many other subjects.
The site home page introduces the society and showcases its online presence on the Twitter platform.
On-line Safety System (OSS), 2019
Developed with the School of Medicine at the University of Sheffield; the Online-Safety System provides a gateway to safety management for members of the School. It includes CoSHH, which has been adapted to make it more relevant for biological agents. There is also an on-line substance safety data catalogue, and the Standard Operating Procedures library. The Risk Assessments system (STAR), developed for the University, is linked from within OSS.
We have been working in web-design for more than 20 years, and trading as CookandKaye since August 2003. You can view a (nearly) complete archive of our work in our Web Archive.
