Web Address: www.LuganoRestaurant.com
Company: Lugano Restaurant
Summary: Lugano is a nationally-acclaimed Italian restaurant in Salt Lake City that wins award after award for their awesome food and cool atmosphere. Their website needed an updated look and feel to better match the restaurant.
I used Adobe Photoshop to create the new layout. Lugano wanted to incorporate some amazing tile that they have in their kitchen into the design, so I pulled that into the background of the secondary pages. The site was built on the Drupal CMS framework so most of my HTML/CSS work was spent building a custom Drupal template. I also used the SlideShowPro Flash plugin to create a rotating photo spot for the home page.

Company: Russo’s on the Bay
Summary: It was time for Russo’s to update their wedding reception/event center website and they wanted something that better captured the look and ambiance of their location. Telestory Pictures was contracted by Russo’s on the Bay to develop and build their website and media materials. TeleStory Pictures hired me as a freelance web designer for the project.
Using Adobe Photoshop I combined elements from interior photos taken of their building to create the design. The home page was created in Flash and it changes from a day photo to a nighttime photo if you visit in in the evening. The site is programmed in ColdFusion using an open source CMS (Content Management System) called Mura. This gives the Russo’s access to edit all of their content (no HTML required) and add new content as necessary. Telestory Pictures also created some awesome videos and virtual tours that you can see in the media section of the site.
Web Address: www.DiscoveryXA.com
Company: Discovery Expeditions & Adventures
Summary: Discovery Expeditions & Adventures is a travel company that specializes in adventure trips to Israel, Petra, Africa and Peru. They also do custom tours to just about anywhere you want to go. They needed a logo and web design that matched the adventurous feeling of their trips.
The client had scanned an old ink drawing of a camel that he wanted to incorporate into the logo. I used Adobe Illustrator to create an old-style travel sticker for the logo. I then used Adobe Photoshop to design the site. The site is programmed in ColdFusion using standards based html and css. I used Adobe Flash and SlideShowPro to create the photo gallery on the home page and the jQuery Lightbox plugin to create the individual photo galleries on each trip’s page.
I also started a social media campaign for the client including a tumblr blog and Twitter and Facebook accounts. I carried that brand across to these sites as well and gave the client a tutorial on how to best use them to increase business.
It was a very fun project to work on and I am very pleased with how it turned out.

I used Sava, a ColdFusion CMS, to allow the client to update all their site content quickly and easily. The home page also has an interactive Flash feature. All the data for the Flash is pulled from XML so they can be easily updated. I used Adobe Illustrator and InDesign to create the various print pieces.

Company: Celerity One (which has since gone out of business)
Summary: This site was a collaboration with my brother Dave Harding. Split Second is an energy drink that increases focus, energy and hydration. Celerity One needed a creative site that would make their drink stand out in the sea of energy supplements. Split Second is unique in that it comes in a packet that is mixed with water.
We came up with the “Find the Split Second Packet” game idea based on the idea that Split Second increases your focus. You start with a blurry screen where things aren’t quite what they seem. As you find the Split Second packets, your focus improves until finally you can see the scene as it truly is. The site uses the computers clock to show an office scene during the day and a club scene at night.
I created the site using Adobe Flash. Dave created the back end for the client using ColdFusion and MySQL.
