The Porcupine’s Quill and The Devil’s Artisan websites
Design and CSS/XHTML coding
The Porcupine’s Quill needed to rebuild the online presence for their publishing company and long-running printing arts journal. Traditional printing methods — as practised beautifully by The Porcupine’s Quill on all their titles — were the inspiration for the design, which incorporates a great deal of quality content.

Fruit by Brian Francis microsite (ECW Press)
Design based on cover art and integration with existing Drupal CMS
We built a microsite for Fruit by Brian Francis, a CBC Canada Reads selection for 2009. The site had to evoke the cover design, while working with ECW’s existing Drupal CMS. Also, we’ve updated the design and functionality of their main site, and are in the process of creating individual subsections for ECW’s extensive genre list.

Design and development using Indexhibit CMS
This is an ongoing experimental pro bono project for the Box Salon events curated by Louise Bak in Toronto. The open source Indexhibit CMS was used for this project with the intention of opening the site up to all event participants once the software allows it, and eventually archiving and indexing the many hundreds of hours of Box Salon video footage in existence.
