If you have tried to leave a comment on Fringe and been redirected to a “Your comment is being moderated” paged, then that means this blog is LYING to you. It is in fact being shuttled to some nether region where bad computer code and dictators roast in a boiling mixture of turpentine, lemon juice, [...]

BassClef Wood Furnishings

By jelewis8 ⋅ February 15, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

BassClef needed a simple redesign that accented the small home wood furnishing business’s excellent wood working skills, especially outlining the work it had already done for such clients as local chapels and parishes, and residential work. To this end, Fringe went with a wood theme that spanned pages and kept the pages sparse and clean, [...]

With the need for a clean and crisp GIS site, Floyd requested a site design that would also reflect a thematic connection with its mountain location.

The Smoking Room

Fringe redesigned Washington DC journalist Greg Piper’s bi-coastal political blog to match the quirky name and feel of intimacy of the original site. Utilizing a backend Movable Type blog CMS, The Smoking Room offers comments, trackbacks, and of course, Greg’s snarky charm.

Resolve Entertainment

Resolve Entertainment needed a placeholder site for simple web presence. Presenting the user with a focused selection of project Resolve is currently working on keeps the site small and highlights everything the company wants to be known for.

A Slight Change in Wording

By jelewis8 ⋅ February 14, 2008 ⋅ Post a comment

It’s time to say what is surely on the hearts, tips, tongues, lips, and toes of everyone who has encountered the shameful farce of Valentine’s Day: Is Western Culture this desperate? The answer, in case you want to skip the diatribe below, is yes. Congratulations. You may now go home and bump the mattress with [...]
