News and thoughts on UI/UX, web design, and more.
I’m excited to announce that I've just completed a website redesign for the Huntington Beach Saltwater Desalination Project. This Orange County initiative aims to bring a carbon neutral, drought-proof water supply to the Huntington Beach area of Southern California. As a redesign/upgrade from Wordpress to Weebly, this site represented two tricky technical challenges. Firstly, I needed to recreate - and improve upon - a scrolling RSS news reader feature. Secondly, I needed to recreate a javascript that counted UP (not down) in a unit of gallons (not time). Everything I build is user-editable, so these puzzles came with a big additional requirement ... my non-techy users needed to be able to edit them in the future. Our other goal was to bring the site into line with the company's established branding and associated online assets.
Altogether it's an engaging image that conveys the fact that every day of inaction means thousands of gallons of fresh water lost. After CarlsbadDesal.com and PoseidonWater.com this is my third website project completed in collaboration with the great team at Poseidon. It’s a real honor to work with these professionals and I want to send a special shout out to Tabitha Smith and Jessica Jones (Director of Communication Extraordinaire) for their endless professionalism and good humor. Thank you for trusting me with your website projects. To see the new site visit HBFreshWater.com.
