The Project6 Design team was proud to be recognized for their excellence with a 2016 Gold Award for the Corporate & B2B website of the luxury home automation company, ELAN. Sponsored by the Horizon Interactive Awards, the Competition recognizes the best interactive media production work from among entries from across the globe. This year’s winners were selected from over 1,200 submissions representing 20 countries and 40 US States. This year’s winning entries showcase the industry’s best interactive media solutions including web sites, mobile applications, print media online advertising, video, and more.
Project6 Design’s recent overhaul and redesign of ELAN’s website resulted in a clean, visually appealing site that is easy-to-navigate, update and maintain. In fact the new, updated, mobile friendly website design better complements the company’s goal of simplifying and enhancing a connected home. The customizable design system utilizing Drupal as the CMS allows ELAN staff to easily edit or add content. Highlights include improved functionality making it easier for dealers to be found and products to stay up to date. In addition, a custom feed of products automatically updates the website, creating product pages on the site and populating the content on those pages. ELAN’s business model involves creating private network hubs for their customers that seamlessly combine music, TV, climate, lighting and other home systems with an easy-to-use interface that puts the user in control whether at home or away. An ELAN system allows users to see, hear, and respond to visitors while sitting on the couch, in their car or out of the country.

Among our many successful projects, the team at Project6 Design has worked with clients to help them build a brand and online presence starting from the ground up. One such project was Presido Classics, which was a newly formed startup that offers design professionals a trusted source for affordable and fair-trade, luxurious natural fiber window treatments and rugs.
Our tasks involved helping Presido Classics create a customer experience that would effectively communicate the exceptional value of the sustainable sourced luxury home textiles. We were also charged with developing a brand strategy that would easily scale as the company grew. In addition we had to build a fully customized ordering process that offered the ability to adjust costs at will. As most of our projects begin, we started by researching other similar luxury and environmentally conscious brands to get an idea of not only the products but what customers were looking for. Our team did an in-depth analysis of the desired user experience as well as created a storyboard that was used to develop a wireframe structure for maximum visual impact and to support the many needed customization options. By using Drupal commerce to build a custom ecommerce system, we gave Presidio Classics a responsive website that is as conducive to content management tasks as to search engines. Once you take a look at the finished product, we are sure you will agree that the site is not only visually appealing with its clean sans-serif logotype, neutral palette, and open page layout but it is also extremely user friendly. However the benchmark for success from Presido Classics was that we created an ecommerce site that allowed for complete pricing flexibility as well as seamless customization.

Located in the Bay Area, we have been privileged to work with the Belvedere Tiburon Library, John Muir Health Foundation, Stanford University, Enphase Energy, and Cartelligent to name but a few of our clients.
You may want to consider using the services of the experts at Project6 Design if you are one of the many companies or organizations running a website that no longer resonates with your customers or reflects your brand’s true character.

With over a decade and a half in business and more years than that in the field, we are a graphic design firm that helps companies establish strong identities to successfully compete. One project our team worked on a couple of years ago was for a solar start-up, Enphase Energy. As a new company, they needed to create a brand identity that would set them apart from the competition as well as to educate their audience on the new technology they were creating.
By working closely with Enphase Energy, we developed a clean, modern brand identity and materials that would effectively communicate their message. To ensure consistency across the board, we developed an “about us” brochure, trade show booth designs, corporate website design, and data sheets along with other items. However don’t just believe us that the branding for Enphase Energy was a huge success, but read what their Director of Marketing, Leesa Lee, had to say about it. She reports, “The excellent brand and collateral design work that Project6 did for Enphase Energy helped us establish ourselves as a credible player in the cleantech industry. Project6 developed a brand identity for us that was the perfect balance of innovative and credible. We sold over 100,000 microinverters in our first full year of production.” Further proof of Enphase Energy’s success is that they became the first solar company to go public on the U.S. market since the fall of 2010, when its stock began trading on the Nasdaq. From start-up to global energy technology innovator, the company now has almost 500 employees, has shipped more than 13 million inverters worldwide, and operates in 21 countries.

At Project6 Design we provide clients with comprehensive services that include strategy, branding, and print materials as well as website design and development. One of our recent high tech clients was Zetta, which is a company founded in 2008 by a group of Internet pioneers for the purpose of advancing innovation in the cloud and creating better data protection. Today Zetta’s client base has grown to over 1,600 customers who rely on the company’s enterprise backup & disaster recovery solutions to keep their mission-critical data safe from disaster.
Zetta turned to the experts at Project6 for help in updating a website that had grown organically over time and was communicating mixed messages in both tone and visual hierarchy. Even their brand identity, created by the original founders, was out-of-date and in need of a professional retooling. Our task began by doing a thorough analysis of Zetta’s brand personality in order to determine its true character. Working closely with Zetta, we established a new identity that reflects the company’s promise of continuous access to business-critical data and applications with a memorable “Z” logo that mimics a continuous up and down flow of data. Our team also studied the site’s information architecture and took care to ensure our new site structure would address the needs of Zetta’s target audience. We incorporated the latest web technology into their site beginning with Drupal 8 web design as well as Saas, Bootstrap, CRM integration, animated SVG icons, and Marketo. In addition we used responsive development, a parallax image display and fixed header to allow constant access to business critical CTA. All in all, the company achieved brand consistency with a new identity that included brand design, trade show booth and marketing collateral as well as a responsive, easy-to-navigate website.

Many companies, especially those that have been around a while, are surprised to discover they are not communicating a consistent corporate identity or are conveying a message that no longer reflects current products or services. The problem can be a result of various pieces of print material, which were created over a number of years and now communicating several different messages.
One example of Project6 Design helping an organization create a consistent, clear message is the work we have done for the Save the Redwoods League. Since 1918 the nonprofit group has worked to save ancient redwood forests and redwood ecosystems so that current and future generations can experience the awe and peace that these precious natural wonders inspire. Before coming to Project6, the League’s problem was that they did not have consistency throughout their messaging. They not only needed materials that would strategically represent the multiple parties they cater to but a fresh, updated image for a clean, modern look. Our talented graphic designers at Project6 created all components of the group’s marketing collateral including bulletins, brochures, donor cards, microsites, flash banners and many other brand touchpoints. We are pleased to report that the brochure, which now features photos and bold custom charts and graphics along with highlighting the great work and impact of the organization, was a Silver Medal winner at the 2011 Davey Awards. As Jennifer Benito, the Director of Outreach for Save the Redwoods League, writes, “The design of our brochure for our Redwoods and Climate Change Initiative is fresh and compelling, showcasing our project effectively for our potential donors.” Please visit our website and take a look at the many other projects our team has done to get an idea of what we can do for you.

The Project6 Design team was pleased to hear we won a 2016 Davey Award for the overhaul and redesign of a website for the luxury home automation company, ELAN. Sponsored by the Academy of Interactive and Visual Arts (AIVA), the awards recognize the best creative work from among small agencies, firms and companies across the globe. This year’s winners were selected from almost 4,000 entries.
The AIVA, a 700 plus member organization made up of leading professions from within a variety of disciplines in the visual arts, judges and oversees the Davey Awards. The organization is committed to embracing progress and recognizing the evolving nature of traditional and interactive media. Project6 Design’s recent overhaul of ELAN’s website resulted in a clean, visually appealing site that is easy-to-navigate, update and maintain. In fact the new website design better complements the company’s goal of simplifying and enhancing a connected home. ELAN’s business model involves creating private network hubs for their customers that seamlessly combine music, TV, climate, lighting and other home systems with an easy-to-use interface that puts the user in control whether at home or away. An ELAN system allows users to see, hear, and respond to visitors while sitting on the couch, in their car or out of the country. ELAN is an award-winning company in their own right as the newly introduced ELAN 8 was recognized at CES 2017 with the “2017 Human Interface Product of the Year” award from the Consumer Technology Association’s Mark of Excellence Award Program Committee. Offering enhanced interface, powerful new user managed features and voice control through Amazon Alexa, the new software eliminates the need for multiple apps and control switches as everything can be easily controlled through the intuitive ELAN system.

They completely redid our academic department website.” They go on to say, “They gave us a very fair price, brought us along in the creation process, and pushed us towards a more current-looking site.

We are pleased to announce the launch of our latest website redesign project, the Center for the Art of Translation. The organization’s mission is to find new, overlooked and underrepresent voices, brought into English by the best translators and to celebrate the art of translations. The nonprofit organization is based in San Francisco and was founded in 2000 by Olivia Sears, an Italian translator.
Project6 Design’s task was to take two disjointed and somewhat ineffective websites (both CAT entities) and to build a consistently branded ecommerce site. Our job involved creating an efficient, intuitive way to allow the Center to weave together the works of thousands of writers, translators, editors, and other contributors. They also wanted to highlight the work of the translators, to build an audience for literature in translation, and to honor cultural diversity throughout the world. Once you take a look at the new website, you will discover a visually appealing site that is easy to navigate as well as to narrow down your area of interest. It was also designed to make it easy to update monthly events and to sort through their large offering of workshops, conferences, lectures, and other news. Furthermore, the redesigned site includes updated biographies of at least 1,100 authors and translators who were published in the literary translation journal, Two Lines: World Writing in Translation over a 20 year period.
