Chiswick Pier Trust

Fri, 29 Jul 2011 00:00:00 +0000

Chiswick Pier Trust has just relaunched its website, designed and developed by Tincan Communications.

Needing something a little bit more modern to support their many activities the Trust asked us to help redesign and develop their site. It was a varied brief, across users and across activities, and of course it had to promote the beautiful Thames side location of the Trust through rich images.

We also had to integrate their social networking activities and ease their admin with interactive elements such as application forms and online bookings.

Just launced this week get over to www.chiswickpier.org.uk to see for yourself what we've done for them. If you like what you see and need something similar then ask us about designing websites for charities.

We have launched Chez Bernardeau, a holiday property in Western France.

Set in the rural countryside of La Vienne in the Poitou Charentes area of France Chez Bernardeau is a charming hamlet. The site is designed to promote two properties in the hamlet, available for holiday rental. The site is designed for ease of use by both potential customers and the site owners, with a full content management system allowing all content to be added to and developed as the owner demands.

Fully compliant, the site is fully optimisable for search engines and should form an important marketing tool for the holiday home rental.

Tincan is also hosting the site and email services.

Wool and Bead Studio

We're building the online presence of the Wool and Bead Studio.

The Wool and Bead Studio is a shop selling, well, mainly wool and beads but also all sorts of craft type items, based in Yeadon, Yorkshire. Alongside top of the range materials they also provide training for aspiring creative types who want to create their own clothing and so on.

Thanks to the Studio soon it will be a damn sight easier for the good people of Yeadon, and in fact the nation, to get their woolly fix, as we're relaunching the Wool and Bead studio site with an online shop, and featuring everything you need to know about wool, beads and what to do with them.

We're particularly pleased as the project sees us welcome back designer Rich McBurney on this one: fresh from his globe-trotting travels. We'll keep you updated with how the build is going over the next couple of weeks.
