Web Design

An effective website is visually exciting, easy to use, and supports your goals.

Effective web design requires a rare combination of design skill plus technical skill. Many so called ‘web developers’ are technicians who can fill in the blanks of a template and give you an average site that looks like everyone else’s. But can they design and architect a site that's visually exciting, unique, and supports your marketing goals? And be engaging, persuasive, easy to navigate, and encourage the viewer toward your desired outcome? Can they build the advanced functionality you need?

With Guy With Glasses you have a trusted designer to create the look and feel of your site PLUS an accomplished developer to build it right. I'm highly experienced with small to large websites — including ecommerce, customer portals, dining services, digital publications, and complex corporate sites with advanced functionality.

Websites are a crucial part of today’s marketing. Trust me for work that looks stunning, works smoothly, and communicates clearly. I've been designing and building for the web since the days of hand-coded HTML pages — and now, of course, I develop in all the major open-source content management systems; including Drupal, Joomla, and Wordpress.
