Working with Adams Design’s bold and inviting layout, we installed an easy-to-use content management system so that the staff inhouse can update it as time goes on.

A blog is included as well, and the feed from that blog also appears on their Facebook page, assuring them of multiple points of presence on the web. The Flash animation, assembling the logo using an “implosion” effect, took a good bit of math.

Highland Meadows Weston

bdmin — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 17:59:37 +0000

We created a nifty interactive site plan map that shows what homes are available. To update, we simply upload a spreadsheet of the models. Some scripting in Flash does the rest, linking pictures to PDFs, related homes to each other, showing sold vs. available, views from the property, and much more.

Another popular feature is the webcam– or set of three webcams. That’s right: three live feeds of views of the property. We were involved with setting up the system to push the visual feed to the website and tying it into the interface.

We added an interactive Yahoo map, including overlaid markers showing local points of interest. Since the site was built in Flash, it was relatively easy to connect using Yahoo’s API, but we went the extra mile by adding a spreadsheet for the markers so that updates will be a snap.

The Waterfront Collection

Creating a classy portal site for a trio of hotels near the Boston Convention Center, Adams Design hired us to handle the details. We used our favorite CMS so that search engine optimization is practically built in. It’s easy for the client to modify, and as time goes on, the various tags that search engines seek can be tweaked for optimum results.

The home page has a bit of flash to catch the eye, and the pages within are easily found in the concise navigation bar.

Shibui

Shibui Designs, a new startup venture focusing on exquisite, beautifully tailored dresses, hired BKJ to create a unique interface to simplify choosing a dress style, fabric and size. Created with Adams Design.

Design your own dress by choosing fabrics and the style. We created a Flash interface that connects to a client-maintained database of fabric swatches. Due to limitations of such a the simulation, we included a way to alter the scale and angle of the tiled pattern.

Behind the scenes, the client is able to update the swatches using SlideShowPro, our favorite image management database tool. The content of most pages is also easily updated using a very friendly content management system. A blog is also included, which helps add the personal touch essential for reaching out to customers.

We also created the sketches. Working from a computer-generated diagram, our artist chose a brush stroke to capture the nature of “shibui.” Rather than trying to be dead-on realistic, which would require massive amounts of rendering time and result in an unnatural “CGI” look, we opted for the brush-swatch approach‚Äîthe loose style also helps to leave some room for the imagination as to how the dress will ultimately turn out in a particular pattern.

The Penmark

Real estate development in Boston. Including Flash logo animation, basic information, floor plans, contact form, etc. (Designed with Adams Design.)

Below is the animated logo we created, along with our recommended music, a basic but clever jazz beat.

Cedarmere Cohassett

“A soft-spoken development that honors the beauty of its natural surroundings,” Cedarmere Cohassett needed a website that fell in line with that philosophy. Working with Adams Design, we created a site that was easy to use, with appropriate use of Flash for a tasteful design accent.

28 Exeter at Newbury

bdmin — Fri, 08 May 2009 21:18:02 +0000

Designed by Adams Design, this website captures the aesthetics of a high-end apartment building located on the corner of the chic Newbury and Exeter Streets in Boston. Looping Flash graphics accent each page. Includes links to sample unit floor plans, via thumbnails and printable PDFs.

While this website begins with an animated splash page, usually considered a no-no, in this situation it is warranted because it helps to establish the brand, quality, and luxuriousness of the amenities of this property, including concierge service.

The 1850

bdmin — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 17:08:10 +0000

Old, but not quaint! An historic South End factory, full of character, and fully sold out– thanks, in part, no doubt, to a spiffy website created in conjunction with Adams Design. This Flash-based site uses a few clever techniques to keep its listing in Google, at the same time complying with SEO guidelines. Our “QuickFix” editor allows for easy text edits.

Below is the logo animation we created for the client:

BatteryWharf.com

bdmin — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 15:09:05 +0000

BatteryWharf.com, a lush, visually appealing real estate development on Boston’s waterfront. Visual design by Adams Design, this site features a convenient way to review floor plans. Learn something new every day: Because it’s a new development, it’s not yet on Google Maps, so we had to add it, using an overlay.

The Bryant on Columbus

bdmin — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 14:40:04 +0000

“The Bryant is more than quality; it’s distinction.” So begins the website for The Bryant on Columbus, a high-profile real estate development in Boston, and with these words in mind, we created the lush, sophisticated environment per the exquisite marketing and branding by Adams Design.
