New Website, Geoffrey Olsen, is up

I have just finished working on the site for artist Geoffrey Olsen.  I designed the site way back at the beginning of the year, and programmed it more recently, in time for a launch to coincide with that of the exhibition being held at The Patricia & Phillip Frost Art Museum, Florida International University, on 2nd September 2009.

The site is designed to be regularly updatable with content regarding further exhibitions, news items and catalogues.  With a WordPress theme built from scratch and a smattering of jQuery for improved front-end presentation (play with the navigation bar!), the site creates a presence which foregrounds the visual, and can be updated whilst remaining well-structured and organised.

    Love the site, you did a great job! I am wondering how you did the sliding bar for navigation. I would love to see the code, as it is really great and a great solution for the simplicity of the site. Any chance you could email me and/or suggest a tutorial? Thanks, Patty

    Hi Patty

    Thanks for your comment. Great that you like the site and the navigation. I made the nav using a combination of CSS / jQuery.

    I was actually thinking about starting a series of tutorials related to stuff I’m doing, and since you are interested it looks like this would be a good place to start. I’ll get to work!
