As I became hip to why I should be building responsive down to mobile websites, I decided to go and revisit some designs for my clients whose users tend to favor long viewing sessions on tablets.  MIT’s Newman Lab is one such client, whose catalog of PDFs is often viewed on tablets.  The design that I developed leaves the navigation fixed in a left column, while sliding the rest of the website on the right, with a plain white backdrop that facilitates reading off of a screen and enhances legibility.  This means that every paragraph of text displays within the visual frame of the logo, links, and footer, similar to a text book.

When viewed on a tablet, the design elegantly adjusts to maximize space for reading in portrait orientation, and adjusts to facilitate navigation in landscape orientation. Gestural navigation on the homepage content slider ensures that vistors can quickly and easily find the latest articles on the website, and then read them with ease.

Dr. Kristaps Paddock, N.D. approached me wanting to evolve his current active blogging life into an online identity that clearly reads “naturopathic doctor website”

Because he wants to be able to update the site easily, integrate his blog as an rss feed, while ultimately attracting clients with a mature yet accessible “doctorly” design, the choice to use WordPress as the core CMS was clear.

Since the design is very basic, most of the build process hase been devoted to development, since I’m trying to give the client several different pre-made page templates that he can use to expand the website at a later date.

Luckily, Dr. Paddock has some amazing photographs of his own from his medical career and education, which will really help bring the website to life.
