Here’s a logo design we did for our friend, Peter Champ. The laurel wreath represents an award for winners of sporting and poetry contests in ancient Greece, and is a nice understated play on Peter’s name–he’s the Champ when it comes to selling your current home, or helping you find a new one. Peter is also extremely knowledgeable in “Green” Building, and the leaves in the wreath are a nice reflection of his expertise.

We recently completed a big WordPress Website design project that comprised of two separate, but similarly branded websites that cater to each of our client’s two target audiences. The client is EdZapp, a jobs application and hiring site for Education, and their 2 audiences are teachers and related staff who are looking for jobs, and schools and districts that are looking to hire. Previously we had helped EdZapp design the User Interface for their web-based application and tracking software, so it was great to finally give them a “front end” design that compliments their “backend.”

We’re pleased to announce the launch of the new Wilfs Restaurant Web site. Built in WordPress, the new site actually uses the same base template as the DBD+A site, but looks decidedly different. Their new site is now a truer reflection of the spirit of Wilfs and is brimming with news, information and more! Please let us know what you think, and be sure to sign-up for Wilfs’ mailing list to be the first to get their latest news and special event invitations, as well as a coupon good for 15% off your next lunch or dinner at Wilfs!
OK, we actually won the Showcase Showdown–the inaugural site design contest from Woo Themes, not an actual smackdown. But our site did receive 80% of the total votes! Just think what we could do for your website’s design… Really, think about it. Here’s what some of the responder’s had to say about our site’s design:
“I’m going to have to go with DBDA. It’s simple, clean, and current.”
“DBDA, hands-down winner.”
“DBDA for me. It’s fresh. The copy and images stand out (especially the dog) and really grab your attention. The white background keeps it crisp. You’ve only got a short amount of time to grab and keep people’s interest and DBDA got through to me asap.”
“DBDA Studio is my choice! Awesome!”
“Definitely DBDA. Looks superb. Any chance of sharing how DBDA did the animation?”
“I like it a lot because it’s clean and minimal. Especially for the type of business that they are promoting. Our firm does the same type work and I have definitely learned a few things from a quick visit to their site.”
After we designed our new website using one of Woo Themes’ superb and sublime WordPress themes, we submitted our URL to their customized theme showcase. Now, we’re happy to report that our site is part of Woo Themes’ very first Showcase Showdown! Check out the contest, and don’t forget to vote!
