2017 Wrap Up

2017 Wrap Up

Work Status
Work for Clorox continued this year. A major effort was made to modernize most sites to the current platform version which as eased continuing support. We also aided in launching many sites serving markets outside of the US. Adapting the platform for the WPML plugin was particularly interesting. We launched the NYU Langone Health Brand Center, a resource for the organization to communicate brand standards to their many marketing partners. This site was built on WordPress using a custom page-building interface that uses a set of carefully-crafted modules. In this way, the look of the site is uniform and regular, as well as quick to build out content. We built this site in partnership with Applied Design Works.
