The beautiful Hotel Phillips has undergone a complete website redesign as part of the renovations it recently completed to it’s actual structure in Kansas City, Missouri. Take a look at the new Hotel Phillips below. Our challenge was to keep the original structure of their website, but to lay the new branding they had developed in conjunction with the renovations over the top of it. The new branding is much lighter, but still sophisticated. It uses a lot of color, patterns and imagery. We highlighted an orange color from their palette and integrated one of their patterns into the background and navigation elements. Take a look at their new site!

We have started a new tradition of choosing one person per month who makes our daily lives more awesome at work. For January, we chose Donna. Then, we just realized we should have blogged about it! Here are a few reasons why we love Donna:
Donna is always happy, smiling and helpful. She takes a genuine interest in all of our projects. Donna helps us test all of our new websites with her excellent attention-to-detail and unbelievable grammar and spelling skills. She amazes us with the small errors she finds and we are happy to have it. Plus, Donna is always thoughtful thinking of us as whole people rather than just work resources. Also, she is an awesome storyteller. We love to hear what she has to say and truly value her opinions.
If you don’t know Donna, you are really missing out. And, if you do know Donna you know how amazing she is – so go tell her so! She deserves it!
Thanks for all you do Donna!
I am looking forward to receiving an email that she found a typo or spelling error in this post. LOL
