My latest collaborative website project for the Washington Dental Service Foundation’s Access to Baby & Child Dentistry program. This re-branded site includes a fresh logo and updated color palette by David Owen Hastings, a password-protected online toolkit for dental coordinators, and an online database of ABCD-certified dentists. Powered by WordPress, of course.
Scott has worked on two websites for us. As a non-profit organization we rely on websites to help us connect with partners and get our message out. WordPress allows a lot of flexibility and Scott is great with suggestions for optimum performance. We are so pleased with his responsiveness and expertise.
Laura Smith – Washington Dental Service Foundation, President & CEO

Living well with vision loss requires accessible websites. My latest WordPress project for SightConnection (formerly Community Services for the Blind) includes a high contrast design by David Owen Hastings, convenient font-resizing, as well as a text-only stylesheet.
The text-only stylesheet replaces a previous text-version of the website, which hurt search engine rankings by publishing duplicate content to the same domain.
Scott Marlow came to us upon a recommendation of our graphic designer, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the work he did for us! Scott worked closely with us to not only develop our new website at SightConnection.org, but also to teach us all the inner workings. As a not-for-profit organization we are always concerned about costs, but under Scott’s guidance the project came in on time and on budget. The launch went smoothly and we love our new website! We look forward to working with Scott on other projects as we implement our new brand and look. I highly recommend Scott to anyone looking to develop and implement a website.

Washington Window and Door has provided functional design and sustainable solutions for the Pacific Northwest for 20 years. Today they have a new website to showcase their products and services.
The new website features specials, an image gallery, and contact forms, which will soon integrate with in-house CRM (customer relationship management) software. Architects and builders can quickly find detailed product specifications too.

My second website for the City of Federal Way: a redesign for Dumas Bay Centre, a retreat center owned and operated by the City. The new site features rotating images of the event venue, panoramic views of the meeting rooms, downloadable catering menus, and an open source Content Management System.
Dumas Bay Centre, a former convent, is an affordable event venue for all types of groups — from business meetings and craft gatherings to memorials and weddings. The event center overlooks Dumas Bay from a 12-acre natural setting with a waterfront gazebo and historic garden. Three meeting rooms can accommodate up to 98 event attendees. And up to 90 guests can overnight in 67 guest rooms.
Our team created a full marketing plan including a new website, brand identity and marketing materials. The work included a comprehensive advertising plan with ads in Bravo, MyWedding.com, the Federal Way Mirror, and other publications.

A marketing collaboration for educational collaborators at Paramount Duty Coalition.
Three marketing consultants combined expertise to launch an online resource for the Paramount Duty Coalition. The five-member Coalition includes Association of Washington School Principals (AWSP), Public School Employees of Washington (PSE), Washington Association of School Administrators (WASA), Washington Education Association (WEA), and Washington State School Directors’ Association (WSSDA). Together, these organizations represent 115,000 teachers, support staff, principals, superintendents and school board members. Their mission: to improve the K-12 public education system.
Why? Because the Washington State Constitution states: “It is the paramount duty of the state to make ample provision for the education of all children residing within its borders.”
Responsibly, the Coalition chose an open source solution for its Content Management System. WordPress, of course.
Working with Scott and David on the Paramount Duty Coalition site was an outstanding partnership experience. David’s lovely, professional design combined with Scott’s technical expertise made it a dream project. I look forward to our next joint venture.

A fresh website for West Seattle’s Twilight Artist Collective.
Months in the making, the new WordPress site features three custom navigation menus and six custom page templates – including a dynamic gallery of local artist offerings, from accessories and clothing to fine art and jewelry. The new site also integrates a WordPress blog (previously hosted by Blogger). A self-hosted blog is one of the best ways to improve your search engine optimization. Read the rest of this entry »

My latest brand refresh for FlowWorks.com. This project involved migrating from a WordPress custom theme to a simpler WordPress child theme. The new theme was compatible with latest secure version of WordPress software. Content editing also became easier for staff.

A new WordPress website for Ballard dentist Michael R. Harris.
Scott was so helpful in helping us think through how to build the most efficient, functional site possible. I am a stickler for design, and was highly impressed by Scott’s ability to build a site that carefully and thoughtfully rendered our graphic artist’s vision. I could count my edits upon first review of the built site on one hand. Thanks so much!
