Play...

Have you ever had a client that is so much fun to work with that it seems like play?...that's what working with Matthew Parker is like...

Matthew is the general manager of one of my favorite places...a wine bar and bistro called 58º and Holding Co...it's located in the Handle District of Sacramento's midtown area...

My business associate, photographer Sue Evans, and I had the good fortune recently to complete a website redesign for 58 Degrees...Sue and I shot all of the images...then we worked with Matthew to develop a site concept and execute a design...one we hope conveys all of the boldness, creativity and excitement of the wine, food and beer menus you'll encounter at 58 Degrees.

Matthew is especially fun to work with...he knows what he wants...and the three of us share a similar design sensibility...he extended Sue and me a great deal of artistic control...this is not to say there aren't a few things we would have done differently...and it is a special joy to work with someone who asks for our recommendations and then adopts most of them...

I'd love it if you would check out the results of our collaboration...and let me know what you think (if you see an error anywhere, please, please speak up)...the formal announcement of the new site is being made this coming Monday...and you can take a sneak peak now...
