home page with font logo and custom banner

services provided

Blog theme modification with a custom banner and font logo, icons and background.

problem

Lisa had set up her own blog and was using the Thesis theme, but she felt it wasn't customized enough to her own needs. She had three books authored and wanted to give them a good presence on the site, but wanted help making everything look just right.

solution

Playing with lots of different fonts, we came to a textural combination of her photography and her favorite font that was simple yet rustic. We constructed custom icons for post dividers, wine pairing, and her favicon (bookmark icon) that flowed with her design. She also wanted just a slight texture in the background and we found a great stock pattern that we modified to blend with her page color.

from the client

“I'm so happy with how everything turned out! I can't tell you how much I appreciate your design sense, updates, and sensitivity to budget.”
