		<description><![CDATA[The Uvize logo design was created over the summer of 2011, and incorporates an open book &#38; pages in brilliant blue color tones to symbolize the goal of this Boulder Educational company: to prepare high school students for their journey into college and future educational experiences.  We initially began working with Uvize on the Boulder logo design as part of a greater project that first included the logo design portion of the project, followed by another project phase that included customizing a Wordpress installation and theme based on the creative logo design to reach out to their targeted demographic of both students and their parents.

We were challenged on this Boulder Logo Design project to create a simple, iconic, and memorable graphic logo design that conveyed all the concepts of "Academic", "Youth" and "Modern" for students as well as their parents.  Blue was the client's choice, but we worked closely with the client to dial that color choice in to something bold, bright, and easily readable on both light and dark background colors through many creative rounds &#38; revisions.  Other elements within the logo design, like the open book graphic, by itself does not read as a specific letter, but within the logo design, this iconic book &#38; pages graphic takes on new meaning, and clearly communicates as the letter "V" within the logo design.

In the large image of the logo design above, you will see the logo sitting in the newly customized website template, including customized background, graphic elements and ...<div><a href="http://www.cloudburstdesign.com/boulder-academic-logo-design/"><img src="http://www.cloudburstdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Boulder-Academic-Logo-Design-website-sm.jpg?52993a" /></a></div>

		<description><![CDATA[The HeidiWicks.com website was designed to clearly communicate Heidi's personalized approach to Date Coaching and Matching, while incorporating her existing logo and branding colors throughout the site.  This is a Wordpress driven site, with a high level of customization to drive page functionality, as well as a customized Wordpress theme, custom page templates, and a remodeled Wordpress admin to make managing the content very easy for Heidi into the future.  Custom content types were created within Wordpress to handle templating and style formatting for client testimonials, news announcements, blog posts, and page content updates.

In addition to the Wordpress customization, we integrated the contact form on the site with Heidi's existing SalesForce.com account, so that all lead generation through her website is automatically synced with Sales Force, and she can more easily manage her clients and new leads going forward. We also migrated her existing Blogger blog posts into the new site structure and dating blog, which can all be maintained from the Admin panel and CMS that Heidi now uses to manage all her site content.

We kicked off this project with an informal meeting in Boulder over coffee, where Heidi described her hopes and requirements for the new site, as well as her existing online content that she wanted to incorporate into this new site.  We presented several site design variations to help guide the conversation and make decisions about overall layout, look and feel, as well as high level site functionality and color choices.  Once we collectively narrowed those ...<div><a href="http://www.cloudburstdesign.com/heidi-wicks-boulder-web-design/"><img src="http://www.cloudburstdesign.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/heidi-wicks-website-design-SM.jpg?52993a" /></a></div>

		<description><![CDATA[California-based Neith Motorsports hired us to design and build their new business website back in the fall of 2008.  They specialize in manufacturing triple chrome plated accessories and  well-padded aftermarket seats for various lines of motorcycles, and were primarily interested in collecting dealer applications during their startup phase.

During the initial consultation, several design options were presented based on our discussions with them about the site design and other online websites they liked.  After the mockup design was chosen, we proceeded in building out and launching the site in October of 2008.  We also assisted in hosting setup and email access for Neith Motorsports to coincide with the new site launch.

		<description><![CDATA[One of Denver's best restaurants and bars, Lodo's Bar and Grill, contracted us in the summer of 2008 to redesign their website into something that would be easy for people to find online, fun to use, and convey their proximity to Coors Field, the home of the Colorado Rockies.

After an initial meeting with this client, several design decisions were made, including the decision to create a fun flash introduction to the site that would include a beer glass filling, and food and drink arriving with Coors Field in the background.  after this introduction, the site loads fully and visitors can explore the menu, events, and other Lodo's locations not in downtown Denver.

We installed a Content Management System for Lodo's so that they could make updates going forward into the future, as well as installing Google Analytics for site traffic tracking and site user stats.
