visit the lumpyblog to find out what we've been up to recently
lumpy lemon has worked with crisis action since it was founded in 2005. we developed an initial website for them (crisisaction.org), then as their organisation grew, we developed this into a multi-lingual site. we also designed their annual reports. recently, we designed (at very short notice!) protectdrc.org which together with a national media campaign put pressure on the government to act in eastern congo.
galeria brasil is a funky (and ethical!) brazilian gallery in east oxford. over five years we have created many promotional materials for them: advertisements, christmas cards, leaflets, invitations and postcards. we recently exhibited the first part of a long-term photography project “the magic of brasil”, based on the symbols and icons found in popular brazilian art.
martin stott is a busy man! he’s head of environment and resources at warwickshire county council, works for several charities, writes books, authors reports, and somehow finds time for photography and growing his own veggies. martin-stott.com was developed to bring together all his writings and information on his work and interests into one easy to use, clear, website.
for over two years we have supported this amazing woman and her incredible dream to row solo across the indian ocean. we provided web design (sarahouten.co.uk), portrait photography and publicity materials such as business cards and sponsorship packs. we hope to be on the beach to greet her when she arrives in mauritius at the end of her journey! the website is very active and dynamic to encourage visitors to return regularly: sarah constantly blogs, adds new photos to the gallery and keeps a record of her fundraising achievements.
fashion photography for sestra moja, the design label of antonia widdowson from oxford. a magical play between textures and shapes brought to life by the beauty of our model mariana magnavita.
in 2008, claire and andy james swapped the rat race in london to restore a beautiful ‘trulli’ farmhouse in puglia in southern italy to be their home and an accommodation business. rusticpuglia.com allows them to easily manage all their prices, enquiries and bookings online, as well as being able to update any page of the website and write a regular blog to keep everyone up-to-date with their progress.
an oxford-based landscape design practise, we designed and developed topio’s website (topio.co.uk) that uses our powerful content management system. this allows it to be easily expanded and updated without the need for a webmaster. in addition to this, we worked on the business stationery and provided design and print consultancy services.
transitionculture.org is the personal blog of rob hopkins, one of the founders of the rapidly-spreading transition towns movement. his wordpress-powered blog was looking a bit dated so he asked us to completely redesign the entire site from the ground up. we developed several wordpress plugins to display the wide range of information on the site, and used open source software to improve the performance. around 1500 people visit the site daily, many of them getting involved & leaving comments.
