A website we completed back in July of 2009, needanelectrician.co.nz was featured in the The Web Designer’s IDEA BOOK – Volume 2 by Patrick McNeil.

We were super stoked to have one of our websites selected by the author from the thousands of websites submitted to be featured in the book and we couldn’t wait to get our hands on our copy. But when it did we quickly flicked through the beautifully presented book to find our handywork, and there ‘proud as punch’ on the top left hand corner of page 238 was a screenshot of our brightly coloured ‘Need an Electrician‘ website.

We couldn’t be happier and look forward to seeing our hand-crafted websites being featured in books and other websites in the future.

Eric from the centre contacted us wanting an uncluttered, professional web presence, so using the neutral ‘earthy’ colour palette and logo that was designed by the talented Glenn McLeary from Red Spot Design we designed this custom WordPress theme.

We had to tread carefully with such a topic, so the website needed to remain clean and not to overwhelming.

Version 2 has a vertical menu and large, gorgeous images to help showcase the new additions to the business. Some of which include new glamorous designer rooms, outdoor heated swimming pool, stunning restaurant and wine & cocktail bar.

The height of the design now expands to show all the content without having an internal scroll bar.
