I’m really excited to announce the launch of the new Tristan Fitzgerald Associates website – http://tfa-ltd.co.uk/. I’ve been working closely with Dan Angell (of TFA) over the past month to produce a simple, clean and informative site. I designed the logo, the site and built it using Textpattern, a sprinkling of HTML 5 and a few CSS 3 techniques; the awesome jQuery Tools was used for the tabs on the home page (expect a full write-up on my portfolio).
