19 March 2007
Hello friends. Big day. As you may have noticed the 2007 Chessington update went live this afternoon. As with ThorpePark.com this is a wash and brush up rather than a ground up rebuild... and there will be further updates over the next few weeks.Strange thing. The 2007 Chessington project started as a nuts and bolts information update, necessary... but perhaps not desperately exciting. Then this strange thing happened. Without warning it began to transform into a creative challenge. How can we squeeze every last drop of opportunity from the current site? How can we change it... without changing it?
Anyway, Mike went quiet for a couple of days and came back with what I think is a great design... my favorite of the three we have done. Fun, attractive and usable. Thanks to Mike, Chris and the team at Chessington for some great work over the last three weeks.
By the way, for those of you counting, since January 1st we've delivered entirely new sites and/or major updates for:
- Usborne.com
- Usborne.co.uk
- Thorpe Park
- Letts Educational
- Lonsdale Revision Guides
- Marwell Zoo
- Deep Sea World
- Chessington World of Adventures
And that's a team of just three people ladies and gents... two if you count the fact that I spend most of my time on the phone explaining that we don't sell anti-virus software :-)
