Raspberry Ice are a catering and events
management company based in Essex, UK. They approached me in May
to design and build their website, providing a "dream" brief affording
me total creative control. The only condition was that it had to
be a Flash website and not overly difficult to update.
As a result, I designed the site to be visually striking but clean,
easy to navigate, and complementary to the attractive food photography
by Sean Pollock. There
is also some mechanical variety between the sections, so the "Our
Team" staff
page has
"bouncy" mugshots, while the credentials "fly" out
of the site.

I used XML extensively as a data source, and made site elements
totally dynamic. For example, the navigation builds itself and responds,
when interacted with, to data provided by external XML. The
site's scrollbars automatically size and position themselves, and
the credential animations know
when to repeat and what to display.
Needless to say, I'm really proud of the final result.
