Lechman-Su and Quach, P.C. asked Quoin to create a web site with the twin goals of garnering new local business for their family law practice while increasing and extending their reputation as guardians of minors from overseas. We needed to give the site an open, friendly feeling that helped users see how good they were with helping children and understanding their needs. We also worked
Town Center eSuites asked Quoin to extend the brand we had created to let new tenants know about the central Wilsonville location of their Class A office space. We performed graphic design of the site's visuals that carried the brand forward and made dynamic use of their images. This site is still in development. Related projects include logo.
Town Center eSuites began leasing executive suites and needed to let people know about its professional image and high level of service. They brought Quoin on to create a new logo design. In the logo's mark, we referenced the building in which it the e-suites are located to create this two-color logo that alludes to the scalability of the suites.
Wilsonville Town Center Offices needed a logo that would represent the building as they began the process of attracting long term lessors. We created a stylized line drawing that captured the principal architectural lines of the building. The colors were chosen to work with existing colors in the building's interior design.
The Google search results page was just drastically improved. A clear hierarchy of user interface elements was carefully considered and executed, meaning it’s now just a little easier to make sense of the glut of information this search engine gives us every day. In the past, Google has suffered from design-by-committee syndrome. One example where that has not been true has been their amazing maps. The new look was created by Andy Hertzfeld. One of the seminal Apple UI designers, he worked there from 1979 to 1984. Nothing in this redesign added server load. The user interface was improved through cosmetic changes that give better legibility and useability.
As designers and project managers, we here at Quoin are regularly tasked with chasing down assets to include in printed work. When we need a logo, we often hear, 'Can't you just pull it off the web site'? Unfortunately, a web site graphic is a fraction of the resolution needed for print. But now, there's a new option: http://vectormagic.com It's not perfect, but it's pretty
Molly's Fund Fighting Lupus needed to drive participation in their annual interior design benefit at the Portland Fall Home and Garden Show. Audiences included interior designers, vendors and others who will contribute to the show. We utilized the Molly's Fund butterfly motif in a way that communicated the level of design participants can expect. To hold down production costs, we modified the typical 11 x
Fifth Season Landscape Design is spearheaded by Chauncey Freeman. A recent graduate of the University of Oregon, he has been making ripples in Oregon's landscape since he was 12. We created a custom web site design that is simple, easy to navigate and gives a spectacular showcase for his work. It's also easy to maintain: Text pages are managed through the WordPress dashboard. Photos are
We're shameless bocce fans here at Quoin Central, and have been playing in the Portland Bocce League since 2009 (and our team silver-medaled in 2010!). The league has reached an important stage of its development. It is becoming more competitive and wants to expand and project a strong, professional image. The bocce ball looked like a rose to us, the symbol of Portland, so we
You're thinking about putting up a new web site. Fantastic. We think it's a great idea (we build them, after all). Before you build, decide what will happen once it's up. Static, informational 'brochure' sites are a thing of the past. Today, competitive web sites are dynamic marketing engines that are a keystone of your business's identity. To adjust quickly to market conditions, you need
