Web Design

I've had a strong interest in web design for many years, developing personal web sites for leisure and more recently professional web sites for clients.

I have a preferance for hard-coding using xhtml and css, but have also developed web sites in my academic studies using JSP, PHP and mySQL. My tool for creating graphics is usually Photoshop and Flash.


Bellow you can find examples of my web design work.


Affordable Self Drive Web Site www.affordablesd.co.uk

This web site is for a Milton Keynes based Self Drive Hire company. I was also asked to design the logo and choose a simple professional colour scheme. I was provided with the images and content, so the main task was building the site using HTML and CSS.

Mirrors Driving School Web Site www.mirrorsds.co.uk

I built this site for Mirrors Driving School to detailed specification of colours and content layout using HTML and CSS. The website allows for customers to buy driving lessons online using Google Checkout.

Heroes for Kids Club www.heroesforkidsclub.co.uk

During my placement at Heroes for Kids, an e-commerce business in the Toy industry. I was asked to design, develop and upkeep a childrens interactive website. I hard-coded the site in XHTML/CSS, created graphics in Photoshop and used Javascript to create simple games. (the images used are Copyright their respective owner(s).)


1 Drive Driving School www.1drive.co.uk

Given all content, including all images, text and the colourscheme, this was a simple task of hard-coding a XHTML site for a driving school based in Milton Keynes.


Treasure Hunter Website www.teambao.co.uk

This web site was created as part of my group project module, and represents our multimedia product, 'Treasure Hunter'. As one of the group's designers I was responsible for the design including the colour scheme and layout as well most of the graphics. I built the basic structure of the site with HTML and CSS, and worked closely with one of the groups programmers who added the additional scripting and flash.


Project 1 Events Website 1 Project 1 Events Version 1

This was the first web site created for 'Project 1 Events'. I had some creative freedom with the layout, but was told the colours were to be black and blue. I created the layout through hard coding xhtml and css.
