Davis Ogilvie

This WordPress-driven site is for a South Island, New Zealand engineering, surveying, and development company.

Urban Legend web was commissioned by Publica DDM to create the theme and functionality from supplied PSD files.

We used Responsive v 1.9.3.5 as a parent theme. A series of new widgetable areas was created, the Advanced Custom Fields plugin was used. Custom jQuery drives the front page scroller, and portfolio and people page mouseovers.

This site is for an innovative, forward-looking Dutch architecture company.

It is powered by WordPress, based on the AutofocusPro theme, with extensive customisation, from the layout of the site’s categories to the behaviour of its home page.

FEUT

This site is for the Forestry Emissions Unit Trust.

Its design is by McGovern & Associates. It is coded into a custom WordPress theme by Urban Legend web.

It uses HTML5, features some custom jQuery, and lets its owners update a database by uploading an Excel file in the backend.

Urban Legend web design Whangarei is based in Northland, New Zealand, and designs, codes, updates, and develops web sites for international and local clients.

Web Design

We aim to build web sites that are well-designed, yet clean, and fast-loading. In other words, sites which are built for end users – simple enough to understand, navigate and enjoy, but designed well enough for those users to enjoy. We like to think this site, and most of those in our portfolio, meet those standards.

Web development

By web development we mean working with, or creating, an ‘engine’ which drives dynamic websites. The pre-packaged versions of these are commonly known as Content Management Systems, and can allow website owners to edit content, list and sell products, create an image gallery, run a subscription service, and more. All without knowing anything about how to web design. We also produce our own simple purpose-built ‘engines’.

Hire Us Because

We’re affordable. Many small-to-medium sized businesses, or clubs, don’t have bottomless pockets. We’ll give you a quote, not a fright, and stick to that figure.
We build web sites which load fast, and display reliably across a range of platforms and operating systems, thanks to the use of modern methods of coding to XHTML and CSS standards.
We build sites which look good.
Your site will be noticed. Our coding methods, and search engine knowledge give your website the best chance of being prominent in the relevant search engine results.
We focus on what’s important to you. For example, do you want your site to achieve a financial target, are you focussed on attracting new customers, or do you have a readership target you want to meet?
