Interactive

  1. website-rialto-natural Experience

  2. Website : Rialto Property Partners

  3. Rialto is a real estate and concept development company in Atlanta Georgia who looks at creating an experience and not just a building. Their thought process is quite different and that is something we had to capture in the website.

  1. flash-infinitecube-exploration Experience

  2. Flash : The Infinite Cube

  3. With The Infinite Cube one person starts to draw and then another person is able to contribute to the previous persons work. This was an extremely fun but tedious project to work on.

  1. cookie-seo-marketing Examine

  2. Design : Cookie Online Marketing

  3. Cookie Online Marketing is a very unique worldwide marketing firm. In the design of their site they needed something that really stood out but wasn't too over the top. It needed to get straight to the point and get the user to contact the company as fast as possible.

  2. Design : Lattetude Coffee

  3. At the launch of a new coffee shop in downtown Atlanta, Lattetude needed to get the word out in the neighboring buildings to let everyone know there was a new cup of java in town. We were enlisted to come up with something short and sweet that could be seen from a distance on a poster.

Services

Web Design

A website is essential to almost any business no matter how large or how small. It's anything from an online brochure to an interactive tool that helps you to reach your audience. Without it these days it's hard to take someone seriously. Our sites are all standards based XHTML and CSS. We also have SEO in mind when constructing your vision. If your interested in getting a website built have a look over the packages under the act section of this site.

Hosting

To help achieve a seamless process for our clients we do offer hosting for a very good price. This helps alleviate some of the technical issues that some clients get with trying to maintain their own system. It also makes it easier later when the client wants to pick up the phone and ask a quick question. It's all part of simplifying the process.

Print

Our main focus is the digital world because that is where most of the innovation is these days, but we also do print design. Currently we don't offer packages for print, but you can send us a message, we can talk, and then we can provide you with an estimate.

Branding

Having a recognizable brand gives your company power to accomplish your vision and is a constant reminder to the customer about what you stand for. If your interested in branding feel free to contact us so we can get an estimate started for you.

Process

Planning

This is the most important part of creating a great design. This is where ideas are exchanged, research is conducted, requirements are solidified, consulting takes place, and prototyping takes form. Fifty percent of the total estimated payment is required before this stage can begin.

Design

Decisions made during the planning stage are taken to task through concepts. With these we explore and help solidify all the design elements and layout. At the end there should be a design that stands on it's own and is solid. A sign-off is required upon completion here.

Production

After all the planning and designing the project has to actually get built and that takes place at this point. Building the framework for the design and programming all the functionality is what brings the prototype and design to life. At the end of this process testing is conducted in an attempt to squash all possible bugs. Once this is all complete the site is ready to go live. The final half of the total payment is required before any assets can be turned over at the end of production.

Us

Were a creatve firm in Atlanta Georgia who enjoys working with the small companies and entrepreneurs that are looking to change the world in some way or another. We hope to foster creative visions through motivation, tools, and services. We have always believed that when you take chances it can be scary but also rewarding in many cases. Partnering with clients that are willing to think outside the box is one of the most exciting parts of our job. Everyone here has a degree in interactive design or similar so you can expect industry standards and practices to be met and exceeded. Our design philosophy follows a common quote from Einstein in that "everything should be made as simple as possible but no simpler". Minimal and functional is a philosophy we strive to live by.
