The Main Street Gym

Bozeman’s Main Street Gym is not your typical meat factory. The owners maintain an inviting atmosphere and focus on training one-on-one with their clients. As we designed the Web site we focused on this differentiation — referencing the trainers and the gym through the aesthetic stylings and langauge of the site. The effect of this was twofold. The gym achieved higher search engine rankings for relevant keyword phrases and prospective members were able to better understand the gym’s unique focus.

MercuryCSC

An internal project at MercuryCSC, an aesthetic redesign of our website was necessitated by a rebranding of the company. At the same time I recommended redevelopment of the backend, moving from a PHP / WordPress / static HTML hodgepodge to the Django framework to allow for DRYer updates, single occurrence data entry, and the ability for non-technical staff to make updates.

72ppi

72ppi is a photoblog that I created to take advantage of digital photo publishing before Flickr or Picassa had gained mainstream popularity. I redeveloped the site in Django in 2010 after hacking at and extending an off-the-shelf blogging platform for many years. The new system made it significantly simpler to comment on photos, introduced a new hackable URL architecture, tagging, geo locations, and generally attempted to promote user exploration and discovery.

Coat Tales 2011

CoatTales2011 was MercuryCSC’s project for the 2011 holiday season. Intended to raise awareness for coat drives, the site asks you to donate a coat and then share a message both with your friends and family as well as the future owner of the coat. The site takes advantage of full Facebook integration; from authentication to sharing. It also makes use of a responsive design; scaling between mobile devices and large screens.

O'Berry Collaborative

An internal project at O’Berry Collaborative, we needed to redevelop our site after an internal rebranding to better convey our design methodology and thought leadership to clients. After evaluating several frameworks and content management systems I built the site using the Django framework for the speed of development it provided as well as its ability to seamlessly integrate the disparate pieces of the site.

IMDS

O’Berry | Cavanaugh designed a new website for IMDS that merged together several division’s subsites under one roof and name. I helped to translate the new look and feel of the brand onto the Web and was responsible for the production and deployment of the site. The site was built on the ExpressionEngine Content Management System, allowing complete client control of the language of the site as well as the ability to add new content down the road.

Blanchford Landscape Contractors

Blanchford Landscape Contractors, a Bozeman-based landscaping service, worked with Thibeault Studios to create a new Web site that emphasized their dedication to sustainable landscaping. Their creative process when approaching a project lead us to develop a kind of scrapbook gallery that allowed clients to browse their past works and flag for future reference things they liked.
