Heart-Light is a major US distributor of the works of Sri Chinmoy: books, music and video.

They needed a flexible content management system to handle a large number of products, with the ability to manage it themselves, including adding music clips and scanned excerpts from books, as well as showcasing key items and linking similar items to recommend further choices. WordPress was used for the site structure. The design incorporates an updated version of their logo, and the company colour scheme. The client wanted a simple, uncluttered style with a hint of Indian decoration; modern but friendly.

Sangitamiya is a World Music shop in Reykjavik, Iceland. The clients wanted the website to reflect the warmth, colour, and uniqueness of the physical shop, as well as showcasing their wide variety of products. The design is thus based around the existing style and logo, and brings in textures found in photographs of the shop. The world travel theme is extended into postcard motifs for a personal touch, and an atlas on the homepage that leads to listings of instruments from various countries.

The structure is in WordPress, so the clients can manage the content themselves, including a blog section. It incorporates a wide variety of plugins: notably for translation, newsletter subscription, product image close-ups and Google world maps.

California Hybrids is a leading developer of hybrid tomato and peppers. Founded in 1991 by
Dr. Kanti Rawal, California Hybrids has quickly become a forerunner in flavorful, colorful varieties bred for commercial and home garden use. With an international roster of clients ranging from large growers and seed distributors to catalogue seed companies and retailers, California Hybrids has shown an unmatched dedication to quality and service. Featured on the Food Network, the LA Times and New York Times, California Hybrids’ varieties represent both a return to tradition as well as a forward-thinking approach to commercial viability and success.

The clients wanted a content management system so they could manage the products and news items themselves. They wanted a simple, easy to navigate design, and needed colours that would enhance and showcase their beautiful varieties, so I came up with a site design and updated the logo a little. I really enjoyed working on this project, full of life, colour and freshness!

The World Heart Beat Music Academy envisions a world where music, as a universal form of communication, bridges cultural, political, economic and linguistic barriers.

The Academy aims to bring the myriad of the world’s cultures together through music, providing an environment where all people can experience harmony with their fellow citizens and be empowered to create a feeling of identity and oneness with humanity at large.

I was lucky to be able to design the site and colour scheme from scratch to reflect the joyful, fresh and diverse nature of the Academy. The site is a full content management system in WordPress, so the client has control over the content.
