Previously on Chroma Design - Websites from our Portfolio
We build bespoke websites, tailored to the needs of your project, business or organisation. We first establish precisely what you need your website to deliver, then design architecture and produce detailed visuals for your approval before we begin any technical work.
We bring a professional design and technical ethos to every project, using W3C Standards-Compliant markup and CSS, in order to maximise extensibility, usability and accessibility. Some of our recent projects are presented here.

Sheila Cook
Sheila Cook specialises in the beautiful and the extraordinary, rarities and eccentricities. Dealing from a discreet premises in Holland Park, Sheila supplies theatres and film-makers with costumes and accessories sourced from a variety of periods and genres.
Sheila wanted to be able to display a thorough and representative range of her stock in an original and imaginative way. Her home page uses an 'exploded' cabinet' structure to entice visitors into each gallery. A full Content Management System, with sortable stock-lists gives Sheila complete control over content and linked resources.

Ferus Hall
From his beautiful premises in West London, Fergus Hall deals in fine paintings, specialising in Old Masters, Dutch & Flemish, and British Paintings. The gallery also has a growing interest in Italian, French and Spanish Old Masters.
Having launched the business at the end of 2008, Fergus needed to establish an online presence in advance of important events and fairs in 2009. The website CMS enables Fergus to respond to ongoing requirements, adding and removing works of art as required.
The site features the new Chroma Flash Zoom, which can display images up to six-times normal size, and is a powerful addition to the Chroma technical portfolio.

Portfolio Website
Criterion Adjusters and Surveyors
Criterion Loss Adjusters and Surveyors are rapidly expanding the business contacts throughout the Insurance community. Founded by Chris Monks, the company has specialised in High Net Worth claims and surveys, and its network now extends around the UK
Chris wanted a site which clearly and distinctively delivered information to those who needed it, including details of the Criterion team and their geographical location.
Wrapped in a neat faux-page format, which divides information into two distinct sections - one each for the Adjusting and Surveying sides of the business - the site is easily navigable, readable and brings a fresh presentation to the insurance sector.
