A New Site for Hart Reade
One of the projects we have had in the pipeline at GSBA for a few weeks is a new website for Eastbourne-base solicitor Hart Reade, and we've just launched it into the wild.
It's another MODx site (our first-choice CMS for small content-driven sites like this), and Adam and Shaun have done a great job on the design and build.

Redesign: The Ultimate Travel Company
One of my favourite clients at GSBA, The Ultimate Travel Company have lots and lots of information about lots and lots of destinations. We have just completed a reskin of their (MODx) site, aiming to make that information a bit easier to get around.
The big problem we were looking to address was one of nesting. With so many destinations, and destinations within destinations, it could take 6 to 10 clicks in some areas to find what you were looking for. The new site drops that to 3 to 5. We also added a search engine, something we all felt was conspicuous by its absence in the earlier incarnation of the site.
We refreshed the design as well, with a new homepage (with giant photos - we wanted to make more of their imagery), new news page, new destinations pages and a new colour scheme to replace the previous brown and orange.
The main addition, other than the search engine, was the new "Destinations" dropdown menu, which has gone from a simple styled list to an HTML/Flash hybrid, with a styled list and flash map working in harmony (we had lots of fun making the JavaScript and Flash talk to each other).
