I recently setup a Shopify based furniture store for a client. I chose an appropriate modern theme and then customised the font, layout and selected photos to fit the theme and business. The project also involved settting up the web store behind the scenes, and enabling products to be categorised.
I recently designed a logo for a snooker cue company. The client came up with several sketches and ideas and I re-interpreted them into a new logo.
The logo had to feature a Claymore sword and Celtic syle font. The ‘O’ in Claymore was to feature a swirl. As I worked on the logo I had to find a place for the Claymore and came up with the idea of having the sword going through the swirl.
Initial ideas were sent to the client and feedback included the colour scheme and the preference of placing the sword over the top. I came up with the logo seen below and the client was happy with the final outcome for his business.

I created a new website for T Cosgrove Heating, a sister website to the Clarkston based plumbing and heating business but this new site exclusively focuses on the heating side of the business.
The site has been designed to be easy to read and navigate with new photos and images added and updated text to reflect the heating services such as boiler repair, installation and servicing as well as general central heating services.
An accessibility report was produced at the end of the project and after testing and correcting of a couple of issues the website passed the WCAG 2.1 test. An accessibility report page was then added to the site and the link was placed in the bottom navigation section.

The Conservative Friends of Africa / Scotland required a website for their new organisation. The site is designed using a WordPress theme which I customised by changing colours and layout.
WordPress allows clients to update Posts and Pages themselves, giving freedom to expand their own content. There is also an Instagram feed plugin giving recent posts from that social media platform.
The site was designed to pass most WCAG 2.1 AA standards. I especially paid attention to the colour and boldness of any text on colour backgrounds(blue or red), making sure it was highly visible to people with low vision or colour blindness.

A new website was created for T Cosgrove Plumbing and Heating based in Clarkston Glagow.
They offer a varied and comprehensive service and installation of all gas appliances and a plumbing service to cover most plumbing emergencies.
The website has a smartphone friendly design which is modern and accessible. My initial design had the headings with too light a colour which failed at WCAG 2.1 AA level, but this was fixed by darkening the font and now passes the WCAG 2.1 AA criteria.
