Brief: to build the Eichardt's website, following a design from Origin. We took our time with this site, as we wanted to create something as beautiful and elegant as Eichardt's itself.

My responsibilities included:

  • Site development - architecture, HTML, graphics, JavaScript, popup windows
  • Selection of some photographic images for site
  • Graphics and development for the special guided tour interactive section of the site.

A beautiful, elegant, graphic-rich site which reflected the very high quality and ambience of Eichardt's Private Hotel.

The site has since been redeveloped by other agencies a couple of times, but interestingly enough they retained my original guided tour interactive within the first new design.
