A bold leap forward for energy technology.
Coal isn’t a popular source of energy these days. Laurus aims to change that with new technology that turns coal into all kinds of clean energy–without digging it out of the ground. The challenge for this site was to communicate the benefits of this new technology to a variety of audiences. A big, bold design combines the weight of heavy industry with the promise of clean energy.

Working with a geographically dispersed team, we developed the whole site from scratch, including information architecture, all new look-and-feel, a custom XML-driven Flash banner, and an easy-to-maintain WordPress build that ensures the site can grow with the company and stay up to date.

The go-to blog for open source education gets a complete redesign. When Open Culture came to us they had a respected blog with great content, but it was hard to read and difficult to get around. We started from the ground up, with a new grid, bold logo, fresh colors, and a clear hierarchy for text.

Add in some new space for advertising and a cleaned-up interface for subscribing, and you’ve got a recipe for growth. Powered by the easy-to-use WordPress system, Open Culture continues to share fascinating content with a confident new style.

Stanford and National Geographic team up to demystify stress. For more than 30 years, Stanford professor Robert Sapolsky has studied the causes and consequences of stress. His research on stress and disease is detailed in this companion website to “Killer Stress,” an extraordinary documentary series that aired on PBS television.The site, created in conjunction with Stanford University and National Geographic, uses video of Sapolsky selected from the television series to demystify the issues surrounding stress.

Although the project was initiated with a very aggressive launch schedule, our expertise in WordPress, Flash, and Web-based video helped minimize the stress levels of all those involved in the project.
