What I Do
build websites
Though I can design websites with HTML and CSS, I have preferred building sites with WordPress because it requires less time; it is flexible; and it has a community that explores and develops solutions and extended functionality. Here’s how I do it.
design creatives
My design style is minimalist and simplicity is my craving. I like colours that blend or monochromic rather than contrasting. Though graphic design is not my strongest forte, you can entrust me with a simple logo and non-fancy web and marketing collaterals. See samples of my work.
write just anything, almost
Writing is my passion. I believe that this what I do best. From business letters to love notes; articles to short stories; blogs to academics. However, I yet have to learn how to write scripts and novels.

Featured Sites
Professional Firms
This particular design site is ideal for firms or individuals providing professional services such as architectural, legal, accounting, and the like.
The design is simple and minimalist yet elegant and creative. Such attribute is appropriate for organisations and individuals who want to project professionalism, truth and reliability.
For individuals and organisations who wish to have fancy and less formal websites, this design can also be applied. All that is to be done is to choose the right colour scheme and photo images.
For example, if your business provides wellness, such as a spa, the required colour scheme has to be warm and relaxing.

Due to some technical limitations, the actual site was slightly different from the original design.

Clinic Site
A website for a clinic takes a different approach. It has to project positivity and warmth. It should be welcoming, rather than intimidating especially for a clinic that addresses strictly confidential and sensitive matters.
The design should remain simple and minimalist so that it does not give an idea of distracting clients from the clinic’s true intentions.
A touch of blue is almost a requirement for a clinic because it has been associated with health.
To project positivity, selecting the right photos would do the trick. As much as possible, use actual photos. If that is not possible, select photos with lots of smiles, nature and light. Soft images are also good.

I applied a similar concept to the website of PsychConsult Inc. View the actual site.
