Starwood Propertes launched

01.01.2005

My first project for Graphic Bliss Advertising, Starwood Properties, is now live.

StarwoodProperties.info was developed to promote a successful Tri-Cities commercial and residential development firm. The site is designed according to web standards, and employs Flash detection scripts to substitute static image for non-Flash enabled browsers to allow the best user experience possible.

Stylistically, the site needed to present a classy, professional image, employing imagery from commercial developments, as the client wished to focus more on the commercial aspect of its business than on its residential projects.

On the back end, the site is powered by general CMS, as well as custom property management software that allows Starwood to easily add new projects (i.e., developments) and properties (i.e., individual spaces or units available for rent or sale, usually within the developments), and to keep track of which properties are currently available. A photo management tool is also part of this package.

I am currently designing sites for some of Starwood's development projects.
