Seema runs a business that incorporates new companies. The site's primary goal is to get prospective visitors to pick up the phone or fire off an email.

The site attempts to communicate the company's professional yet personal attitude. The design tries to avoid looking too legalistic or corporate, while also refraining from being too kitsch or twee.

Consistent lines, concise clear text, a splash of graphics, and a contemporary colour scheme help achieve this.

Graphic design par excellence. Dan has an eye for photography, a deft hand in Illustrator™, a nose for the zeitgeist, and great taste in typography. What more can you ask?

This site will be Dan's hub for anything he wants to communicate to the world about Creative Storm Ltd, his design company. It features a blog that updates his Facebook and Twitter feeds with the latest company news.

Exquisite moments, simply captured. Nick's site allows visitors to view his public portfolio, and lets customers log in and select photos for an album or print.

The back-end handles bulk image uploading. The site also features an interactive, jQuery-based photo gallery that resembles a bunch of polaroids (for click-based fun).

Trading and portfolio performance management.

This is a personal project that began as a little excel tool for a friend needing to track his trading activities.

This is the attempt to make that tool a fully-fledged web application. <Sigh>
