Web Design
This service coincides with Step 3: Design under How We Work. We cover things with you like: color palette, typography, branding, layout and GUI/UX design.
- Providing us with samples of web sites you like gives us the opportunity to build a foundation and starting point for your project. Once the mockup's are approved, we move on to the next step.
- We create a style tile that visually represents the website interface via typography, color and other elements based on the signed off design specs.
- Now it's time to create the wireframes. They represent all of the above and get magically turned into code, just like on TV.
- Now the not-so-fun part, testing and debugging. We need to make sure everything within our control is working, everywhere before we release it to the world.
- Yay! With final sign-off by the client, we are ready to launch your masterpiece to the world.
