dutchheritageworldtours.nl

This is the website for a company that offers audio tours in countries with a Dutch heritage, including France, the United Sates, and Poland.

What I Did for This Website:

Using a site design provided by the company itself, I rebuilt their existing website and changed it from HTML to WordPress. I did this to give the company a content management system, making it easier for them to update their site. To this end I created a custom manual for them, which I always offer clients when building a website. Putting all of their initial content online for them to access as needed for their updates presented much of the labor in building this site. It’s also a multilingual site, and these are always a bit more challenging to build than one might expect, but very necessary and ultimately enriching for companies such as this.

tribalartfair.nl/onlinefair

This site was created because of the Covid-19 Pandemic, which in 2020 replaced the annual in-person art fair, held in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

What I did for this website:

This project I worked on with a graphic designer named Daniela de Boo. We worked on the site in the months leading up to the launch of the online Tribal Art Fair. Using WordPress, I created a system where every dealer involved with the fair could log in and post photos of the art objects they wanted to list for sale. In essence, I created an online market for more than twenty individual dealers. I made the objects filterable, so that visitors could focus on the origin of the art objects themselves or the art dealers. Each gallery/dealer has their own page on the website where visitors can arrange to purchase objects.

There were two main challenges of working with a site containing many thousands of individual images. The first was to make the site easy to navigate. This I achieved by limiting options, thus keeping the site simple, providing filtering options, and adding an option for visitors to Favorite objects as they browsed. The other challenge was to maintain a fast website, which I achieved by optimizing all the images for speed, and building a custom theme to control loading time.

This project encourages the writing of poetry for people with intellectual disabilities, both for their enjoyment and for the enhancement of language skills. Through using the methods offered here, individuals acquire skills that allow them to become more confident participants in verbal communication.

The custom-made online component of this project features an interactive version of the steps involved in writing a poem and makes available a significant amount of resources on the subject for attendants, therapists, parents and teachers.

This is a Blindschelders & Raadsman project.

What I did for this website:

In 2021 we decided to reorganize the site to make it more user friendly. With our list of resources continuing to grow, with many new featured projects to display, and a wealth of new articles focused on our subject matter, we needed to make this bounty of information easier to navigate and search through. I used WordPress and a very flexible existing theme to redesign and update the website to accommodate every requirement.
