‘A Life in Valencia’ offers people visiting Valencia, inhabitants of the City and also those thinking about moving to Valencia, a guide to the City, it’s customs, the area and insider information.

There are many ‘visitor guide’ sites to Valencia, but it was felt that whilst some were good at offering hotel information, for example, they missed out on daily life articles. A Life in Valencia is to offer everything there is to know about Valencia, staying in Valencia and living there, in a concise and informative way.

The site design and construction makes it easy for the user to navigate and quickly get to the information they needs, whilst aiding the Administrator in uploading and adding new content to the site. The site is in the process of being translated to both English and Spanish with the possibility of Valenciano Spanish being added at a later date.

Features of A Life in Valencia are dynamic headers, article and category interactive-maps, font-replacement, galleries and image areas and scrolling Featured Articles and News, plus integration of a content management system.

Death By Cutie offer a range of iconic designed clothing for the ‘individual’ in us all!

Based in Sheffield, DBC aim to force individualism us all with their eclectic range of clothes. Whilst the itmes themselves are ordinary – T-shirts, hoodies, vest tops etc., the printed designs are very unique!

The products are available in a number of boutique outlets in the South Yorkshire area and there has been some encouraging interest from major retailers.

The goal of the site was to create an extremely minimal online-shopping experience that would show off the design aesthetics of the clothing rather than the site.

Living in Spain I get to see a lot of these Chupa Chup lollies.

You may know the brand but I bet you didn’t know that the Chupa Chups logo was designed in 1969 by artist Salvador Dali!

Its first marketing campaign was the logo with the slogan “És rodó i dura molt, Chupa Chups”, which translates from Catalan as “It’s round and long-lasting”.

Later campaigns used celebrities like Madonna to advertise the product. In the 1980s, owing to falling birth rates, an anti-smoking slogan “Smoke Chupa Chups” was tried to attract further adult consumers. The company’s current anti-smoking slogan is “Stop smoking, start sucking”, with their packages parodying cigarette pack designs.

Claremont Marquees Ltd. of Devon was established over ten years ago to meet the growing demand for excellence within the marquee hire industry.

Ten years on and Claremont Marquees Ltd. is now firmly positioned as a company with the highest reputation for reliability and attention to detail.

Historically, Claremont’s sites have been designed, functional but lacking in content. The goal of the new site was address the content issue and to create an online experience for the user that reflected the lifestyle they could aspire to – even though it is for just one day.

The site has clean typography throughout with an update use of the Claremont Marquees’ blue and orange corporate colours.
