Redesign of DesignRabbit
May 19 , 2009 8 comments
Once upon a time…
I needed a redesign and I started last year working on the logo for DesignRabbit. I created a logo that I really fell in love with but then I got busy with Yahoo! Buzz and some other projects.
Goals
My goal was to have the website showcase the designs I have been doing. I wanted people to see that my range included more than just illustrations. I’ve been designing on the web for a long time. I’ve been in the corporate world and can adapt my designs for the projects to have a consistent voice (that’ll be another post). :) So the main focus of the redesign was to showcase the projects, setting a stage for it. The old site was hand coded in 2004 and was an exercise in coding from scratch but I should have used a content management system to keep my sanity. I wanted the website to animate and use the lightbox, be accessible and validate of course. ;)
