Web
We specialize in creating clean, elegant, easy-to-use websites. We use the latest standards-based techniques and test our work extensively on a full range of web browsers and platforms. Eschewing trends, we focus on the basics of good design: usability and compatibility for both users and administrators; information presented in clean, organized layouts; refined typography; well edited copy. We strive for timeless design – work that does not look dated one year from launch. In addition to web experts, we are writers and editors. We understand that clear, effective copy – good words put together well – is what truly makes the web an astonishing communication tool. View our portfolio here.
Consulting & Speaking
Director Michael Gravel is an accomplished public speaker and a highly sought after event emcee. He also plays a mean game of canasta, if the mood is right. He has much experience in educating writers, artists, and others on the often confusing landscape of the world wide web. He has spoken at writer’s conferences, colleges, public libraries, and once in a large catholic church. (See speaking portfolio here) He is available for speaking engagements and workshops that deal with the intersection of artists, writers, creative types, and the internet. He is a patient, lucid (and most times funny) teacher that can take complex ideas and concepts and make them sound easy.
Writing
We are experienced technical and copy writers with a passion for clarity and simplicity. We put these skills to work on the web every day. Information architecture and the flow of user experience are of paramount importance to us. We don’t mince words, and you won’t catch us typing “lol” anytime soon.
