Early last month I post about the imminent launch of the Jacka Lawyers website and Im happy to announce that Phase one of the site development came into action a few weeks ago.

Phase two will include the implementation of some nifty forms and a very smooth client area to facilitate the relationship between Tim and his staff and their clients. Stay tuned for more updates.

This is a somewhat belated note about the launch of the Down River website. The site is for the Down River: The Wilcannia Mob Story book that was launched earlier this year.

The book traces the story of the Wilcannia Mob and the production of some homegrown Australian Hip Hop tracks with the help of Queensland based Hip Hop artist and producer Morganics. The book itself is a stunningly designed and crafted publication put together by Boccalatte Design with the photography of Mick Angus and Melinda Collie Holmes. You can get a feel for the book by visiting the website and hear some music from the Wilcannia Mob on the Listen Up page.

From a design sense we are really happy with the way the site works. It really captures the essence of the book, featuring a lot of elements from the book (the main site background is lifted from the book cover), and yet the overall aesthetic is clean and minimal.
