Here is a sample of some of our web design work. If you like what you see and fancy something similar, contact us now to get started.

Speleological Union of Ireland

The SUI is the representative body for cavers in Ireland. Although their existing website provided useful information and attracted a substantial amount of traffic (4,000 pageviews per month), the site's content could not be updated without technical knowledge. We migrated the website to a self managed system and completely redesigned its look and feel resulting in a modern dynamic website that is easily maintained and also serves as a communication tool for the organisation's members.

Northwest Connects

An initiative of Sligo Open Coffee members, Northwest Connects is the first conference of its kind to take place in Irelands north west region. The event is designed to connect local entrepeneurs, innovators and ordinary folk with business ideas and will showcase the support and expertise available in the region through a series of panel discussions and seminars. Northwestconnects.ie was created as a promotional website for the event which is sponsored by Lookwest, Sligo CEB and AIB.

Lickable Wallpaper

This travel and photography blog designed around the theme of Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was used as an online journal for a round-the-world trip. The bright colours make this site stand out but were carefully chosen to complement the landscape and nature photography displayed on each page. Lickable Wallpaper attracts an average of five hundred unique visitors per month searching for travel information and was longlisted for the best photography blog in the 2009 Irish Blog Awards.

Beautiful Jobs

Created to fill a niche in the Irish beauty recruitment sector, this website was designed with ease of use as a priority. Built from the ground up using Ruby on Rails, the site takes the effort out of posting and applying for jobs online. Unlike other jobs websites, positions can be advertised within minutes of registering, and candidates don't need to register to apply for jobs. The website's elegant design and color scheme was also used to create promotional material, advertisements and business cards.

Aille River Hostel Doolin

Voted Number 1 hostel in Ireland in 2008 and 2009, Aille River Hostel wanted a website that would convey some of the magic that's made this hostel so popular with travellers from around the globe. The result is an informative and eye-catching website that has become a useful resource for the Doolin area. By providing a wealth of information on local activities and places of interest, the site attracts travellers in the early stages of researching their trip and in many cases converts them into customers.

The Robbie Simpson Trust Fund

When Robbie's family decided to make a website for the trust they established in his memory, there was one image in particular they wanted to use — a photograph of Robbie jumping into the sea. Although the picture was small and grainy, it captured Robbie's spirit and after a little enhancement work was used as the backdrop to robstrust.com. In conjunction with the Mater hospital, Rob's Trust promotes research into cardiomyopathy and helps provide life saving equipment to colleges and sports centres.

Airbrush Makeup

We like to create websites that really convey their subject matter and this single-page website does just that through clever use of texture, color and gradient and images that show customers exactly the kind of results they can expect. Maria didn't need a full website but did want the option of having one in the future so we've put everything in place for her to extend her existing site whenever she feels the need. Like our full websites, this site came with content management, web analytics and e-mail as standard.

Claremorris Swimming Pool and Leisure Centre

This website for Claremorris' new swimming pool and leisure centre needed to be accessible to all of the pools clients, young and old, so we made sure that strong contrasting colors and clear navigation were used consistently throughout the site. A text resize box allows visitors to increase the size of the text while 'breadcrumb' navigation, search facilities and a site map are accessible from every page. The pool opened in September and the new site receives an average of 10,000 hits per month.

Fighting Ways

Although this website is a work in progress, enough of the design work has been completed to give an idea of the sites look and feel. The people behind Fightingways didn't like the dark, loud look that many of the existing mixed martial arts websites went for, so we came up with a design that has a little more grace and a lot of punch.
