<p>The website for long-term client and picture framing experts, Frames Express, has had a bit of a makeover!</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve introduced a clean, modern design to the site with an effective blend of subtle tones and vibrant colour to create a classic yet personable look. As with every e-commerce website we do, the customer&#8217;s journey was at the heart of the strategy behind the redesign process. Providing clear routes to different product ranges, an easy-to-use &#8220;How To&#8221; section and an updated, more customer friendly &#8220;Frame Designer&#8221; to ensure the buying process is as simple and as pain-free as possible.</p>

<p>Long-term HeadRed client, the Nationwide Group Staff Union (NGSU), have recently undergone a website makeover. Their old design served them well for over 2 years, but it was felt the time was right for a change. </p>
<p>Following an involved consultation process the new NGSU design was produced. Our focus was on creating a look-and-feel that fully reflects the nature and values of the union, whilst at the same time providing visitors with the most usable route to information they require. </p>
<p>The finished design is very clean and professional with splashes of colour throughout providing consistency with the NGSU’s corporate brand. The site’s layout has also been improved with feature boxes on the homepage and a much more logical navigation structure making it a lot easier for users to find their way around. What’s more, we also added in a new <a target="_blank" href="http://www.ngsu.org.uk/blog/" >NGSU blog</a> so now you’re never too far away the latest news and views on the world of working practices! </p>
<p>Check out the new NGSU website here: <a target="_blank" href="http://www.ngsu.org.uk/" >www.ngsu.org.uk</a></p>

<p>HeadRed have been appointed by local tennis coaching company, Inspire 2 Coach, to deliver a new website and overhaul their existing online presence.</p>
<p>Inspire 2 Coach runs a wide range of tennis programs for all ages and abilities at a family of clubs in Warwickshire and Worcestershire. They also offer packages of coaching courses, workshops and mentoring for all levels of coaches and teachers.</p>
<p>Our work will include the creation of a new brand identity for Inspire 2 Coach. This will form the basis of the website’s overall look-and-feel with the aim of enticing and engaging visitors.</p>
<p>The site itself will provide a platform for budding Andy Murrays of the future to find coaching courses local to them and book a place online. Similarly, tennis coaches and teachers will have access to a wealth of information and details of how they can enroll on programs of their own.</p>
<p>The new site is currently under development and we are working towards a summer launch.<br />More details to follow.</p>

<p>February saw the launch of the <a href="http://www.britanniawardrobes.co.uk/"  target="_blank">new website for Britannia Wardrobes</a>, a subsidiary of the highly acclaimed <a href="http://www.spaceslide.co.uk/"  target="_blank">Spaceslide</a>.</p>
<p>The new site has built on the successes of its parent with a clean, crisp design supporting clear calls-to-action for potential customers. Unlike Spaceslide, there is no e-commerce functionality built in, but interested purchasers can <a href="http://www.britanniawardrobes.co.uk/quotation.php"  target="_blank">request a free quotation</a> by using the web forms located on the site.</p>
<p>Spaceslide are already one of HeadRed’s biggest clients with online sales belying our shrinking economy. We’re sure that the new site for Britannia will follow suit and become equally successful.</p>

<p>The website for long-time HeadRed client French Selection has received a much needed makeover.</p>
<p>French Selection UK is a leading recruitment consultancy who specialise in the placement of multilingual professionals. Their website was originally launched by HeadRed back in 2004 and has been used to source employees for clients and jobs for candidates ever since.</p>
<p>Now, four years on, the site has been refreshed and brought up to date with modern web design standards. The finished version is clean and airy but also colourful and vibrant. Clear calls-to-action engage visitors at the point of entry and allow for guided routes through to relevant information.</p>
<p>We’re certainly very proud of it. Take a look at the new face of French Selection here: <a href="http://www.french-selection.co.uk/"  target="_blank">http://www.french-selection.co.uk/</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here at HeadRed we’re doing our best to fight the credit crunch and our recent efforts have been rewarded with the commissioning of two new lucrative contracts.</p>
<p><img src="/images/news_images/complementary_education.jpg" alt="Northamptonshire Complementary Education Learning Platform"/></p>
<p>The <strong>Northamptonshire Complementary Education Learning Platform</strong> is a new project devised by the Education Sector of Northamptonshire County Council. Its aim is to provide better communication between young people, teaching staff, parents and the wider community using the Internet.</p>
<p>The learning platform, which comprises a new website and intranet, will enable staff and young people to collaborate in shared areas, communicate their ideas and store their own materials in personal “e-portfolios”.</p>
<p>-</p>
<p><img src="/images/news_images/ward_rider.jpg" alt="Ward &#038; Rider"/></p>
<p><strong>Ward &#038; Rider</strong> are a highly regarded law firm in Coventry. For over 50 years they’ve supplied their customers with quality legal services across a wide range of disciplines.</p>
<p>We’ve recently been contracted with revamping Ward &#038; Rider’s corporate branding, providing them with a new website as well as a whole range of printed materials. They have also signed up to one of our tailored SEO contracts to ensure their new site remains successful long into the future.</p>
<p>-</p>
<p>Both of these new projects illustrate perfectly how working in the online industry can bring you together with a diverse range of different organisations. We don’t work to any industry or market boundaries.</p>
<p>Our solutions are available, usable and effective to all companies, whether public or private sector.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Moulin Rouge, that beacon of Parisian indulgence in the 19th century. Frequented by tourists the world over and the regular subject of interpretation by artists, writers and film makers to the present day.</p>
<p>And now, it’s HeadRed’s turn.</p>
<p>Our brief was to design a glossy, 12 page theatre brochure in the style of the revered venue that would act as the official invite for a highly prestigious event.</p>
<p>The brochure places HeadRed in the esteemed company of Toulouse Lautrec, Pierre La Mure and Baz Luhrmann, as creative visionaries who have attempted to capture the mystique and charm of the “Red Windmill”.</p>
