The “Wow” Factor in Web Design
Filed Under Homegrown, London, Presscuttings | 1 Comment

This morning we were incredibly flattered to learn we’d been mentioned in an article over at designinformer.com. Jad Limcaco- himself a web designer – wrote the piece entitled The “Wow” Factor in Web Design in which he highlights some unique design details on a handful of websites.
But the story gets better. By 11am we had an enquiry from a restaurant in Shoreditch, London, who we are due to meet on Monday. They mentioned that they’d seen us in this article and it had persuaded them to get in touch. Looking at the email enquiry it’s clear to see how this customer found us. Midway through the email is written:
“…and I would like to redesign our website and branding to have a ‘wow’ factor”…
I’d hazard a guess that this sentence contains the choice keywords that might be responsible for leading the customer to us. Maybe I’ll ask on Monday.
Still, we look forward to the meeting and we give a big thank you to Jad for the lead!
Merry Christmas!

#Glug does it again!
Filed Under Design Events, Glug, London, Networking | Leave a Comment

Glug last night must have been one of the most successful yet. The Munny Doll Auction was a stroke of genius and raised a cool £5,000 for worthy charity Barnardos.
The Book Club proved to be the perfect venue for a cold December evening and the atmosphere was dimly lit and cosy. The crowded room cheered as the auctioneer (appointed from Sotheby’s) sold off the Dolls one-by-one.
There was the usual interesting talk, and sponsors Digital Gurus supplied drinks. As always, the (free!) nibbles were good and came as a welcomed companion to the flowing drinks.
I hear there’s a break in January so hopefully we’ll all be back in the Book Club again come February. Look forward to it.
