Designing The Slow Way Down logo
We love it when a web design project comes along that requires a new logo. So when 'The Slow Way Down' team approached 3Sixty with their interesting project, our designers were immediately falling over themselves to get to work.
Screen size versus browser size
There is a lot of discussion about what screen resolution (the physical number of pixels a monitor can display horizontally and vertically) should be targeted for designing a web site. Most people talk about either designing for 800x600, or 1024x768; a minority think that fluid designs–where a layout stretches to fill the amount of available space–is the way forward. The answer is more complicated and less clear-cut than it at first might appear.
Good design makes a real difference for Bristol International Airport
We probably get most satisfaction from a piece of work when it makes a real difference to our client’s business. More often than not this isn’t when we come up with an eye-catching animated Flash movie for a Home Page; more likely it’s when we apply solid design and marketing principles to less glamorous parts of a client’s website.
A case in point is the recent re-design of the Bristol International Airport’s (BIA) contact page.
BIA came to us with a problem. The Airport’s customer service team was receiving around 35-40 Emails a night, despite the fact that most of the information people were asking about is readily available on the website. Replying to each and every Email was becoming a time consuming exercise and a real cost to the business.
What lies beneath the fold
Do we really need to have all important content 'above the fold' on the homepage?
We think not.
