One of the designers who made it happen

Winner - webknix

Great job on a simple, clean, yet stunning design, and the designer was so good to work with. He asked good questions to clarify our intent before submitting any designs, and he asked good questions all along the way to make sure he was going in the direction we wanted. He also took input from our team really well, making it in some ways a joint design experience. It was so obvious he was the right one for us that we quickly eliminated all other designers so we could focus our work with him. No problems with this designer - we would definitely work with him again.

Other notes

What we want is a professional looking website that does not look like someone threw together a site with a wordpress theme in less than 30 minutes time. We want something crisp and non-generic looking that improves upon what we have. The site is built on expression engine.

Our audience of buyers is a technically astute and highly intelligent group. They buy our reports to improve their market knowledge and better understand the trends, technologies and opportunities. We want our content to be clearly visible and not obscured or lost through cheap web design or ill fitted design concepts.
