web work: catherine's gift boutique
This site is based around a shopping cart system. Several types of products are sold and it was important to the client that the navigation be easy to the viewer in order to find what they are looking for.
design
There was no existing site when I started on this project. The domain was parked at godaddy. I created the design for this site, going off of the clients feedback during meetings and phone conversations. I was given liberties with the over all look and color scheme but the client wanted to focus a bit more towards the female crowd.
The logo was also create as there was no pre-existing one that the client wanted to continue using. Old business cards did contain flowers so I carried that concept into the design.
Imagery was provided in the form of product by the client.
site info
This website has an open source shopping cart system called Zen Cart installed. I took this project from concept to completion myself. I worked along side of programmers in order to add in some cart functionality that was requested by the client.
Domain was purchased by the client and transferred by me. The hosting, content, and imagery were gathered and organized via contact with the client.
I also trained the client in managing their shopping cart system and on the added features.
