Here you can find a small selection of web and internet based projects that I've designed and developed. The majority come from my 6 years working as Interactive Desginer at Real World Multimedia, the interactive department at Peter Gabriel's Real World.
The chosen sites reflect the diversity of the work I've created, both visually and technically. The sites range from e-commerce sites with turnover in the millions of pounds, to smaller scale microsites to support the realease of albums by artists at Real World. Technologies used include: X/HTML, CSS, Flash, PHP, Lasso, MySQL, Filemaker & QuickTime.
My main interests are in the area of what is often called 'Web 2.0', utilising advanced CSS and Javascript solutions coupled with backend server-side technologies to move beyond the traditional model of the page-based web.
A2Z Antiques offers easy access to a wide range of quality antiques to browse and buy. From one site, buyers can search for, view and buy items offered for sale by antiques dealers throughout the UK and beyond.
One of the biggest challenges with this site was to provide an easy to use interface for Antiques dealers and buyers alike. Dealers can sign-up online, add items and make use of free assets such as advertising banners in English, French and German. All of the website text is editable by either the dealer or the site owner as appropriate. Made with valid standards compliant code and based on MySQL and PHP the site provides a solid foundation on which to grow in the future.
Each antique can have up to four images, description and title text in several languages, and pricing information that includes daily updated currency conversion values from the European Central Bank.
