mediajunk

We've launched two new websites designs already this month, and I'm quite pleased with both of them, I must admit.

For Don Conroy's website, our brief was to showcase Don's painting in particular. We also created some custom tools that allow Don's marketing team to upload new paintings to the gallery, along with titles, descriptions and prices. Thumbnails and links are created automatically. We've also incorporated an updateable news section. The incumbent site was aimed at children, so we've kept that and labelled it as Don's site for young people.

We also launched our redesign of the Kilroy's College website. This was (and still is) a very interesting project because the client has very specific goals and a deeper-than-most understanding of the web, analytics, etc. We conducted usability reviews, wireframe mockups, graphical mockups, with (several iterations of each) before coming up with this new design.

Both designs represent new directions in style for Mediajunk. Both are also usable, accessible and XHTML/CSS standards-compliant. It just goes to show that a you don't have to sacrifice aesthetics when complying with standards and best practice.
