Bene

Some points in my schedule are essential to me for every new project. Here’s how i plan new projects. It is essential for an independent web designer - like myself - to have it as smooth as possible, your project and client will benefit from a good preparation and open communication. But how do you prepare for a project and how do you set goals?

Let me start by wishing you all a very happy 2009!
We have been busy building websites and creating mock-ups for new websites.
I was looking for a way to make adjustable buttons for use in a website and tried to make a few reusable buttons in Illustrator after reading some tips in Computer Arts Magazine. Let me tell you how I made them:

A few weeks ago, we launched our new Bene website. The website was made using Expression Engine as the content management system. We hope to finish the dutch version within a few months, but for now, everything is written in english. Our website has made it in a few showcase galleries. We like to share the list with you.

I published a website for Hans De Pelsmacker, Belgian designer. His portfolio is illustrated with a lot of photos to get the best impressions of his work. You can view the website at: www.hansdepelsmacker.be. A complete set of photographs of his work can be seen at: Flickr

I decided to make some drawings on the topic of networking, just some basic sketching. Once colored with some paint, I scan them with a hight resolution (300 dpi) and save them for later use in Photoshop or Illustrator.
