AQCS Environmental employs a highly structured approach to environmental management working efficiently with companies of all sizes to successfully reduce their violations and fines from local agencies. The redesign of this website included a brand new, clean, modern design.  Since the target audience is not tech savvy and older, it is extremely important that the site be easy to read and navigate.

To keep the content fresh, Blogger was utilized so the owner could easily post new articles that would interest his clients as well as potential clients.  A custom template was created to mesh the third party blog system with the existing site.

Tracking code was also installed to gather information on keyword search results for the site, how long visitors are on the site, which pages where frequented most, and more.  Banner ads were created and were then embedded with tracking codes as well.

(Note: The diesel emission retrofit database was created by a third party, not eyeMotion Studio.)

The young architectural firm, Design Fulcrum, needed an online portfolio to attract new business. Following the lead from the print collateral, the hand drawn elements take over the design of the website by framing the content area and nesting the navigation.

To shift the focus away from the lack of projects, displays of tactile materials help bring the architectural designer into the realm of the viewer's world by showing items the viewer can relate to. Creating architectural change for real people.

Rather than using print for testimonials, streaming video captures real people expressing their real personal stories with Design Fulcrum.

Lifesharing is a nonprofit organ & tissue donation organization serving San Diego County. The website honors the special people who so generously gave the ultimate gift of life to others through tissue and organ donation. With families' permission, the site gives a face and name to donation, which is so much more than numbers on lists.

The home page has several dynamic features. A ticker tape displays current donation statistics. A live number of donor registrants submitted to the California DMV is displayed with each browser refresh. A random picture is selected within the donor circle with each browser refresh also.

Database structures utilizing PHP & MySQL were created for a dynamic calendar of events and an internal message board for hospital coordinators. Both were styled through the use of CSS.

With a new look, the non profit organization needed a redesign of their existing web site. The overall design is clean and simple to allow for easy navigation for the various age groups that visit the site daily.
