Portfolio
Sites and applications, kept here exactly as built. Every entry opens as a working site inside a device frame — click through it, switch between desktop, tablet, and phone, and judge it the way a visitor would.
Our own site, built the way we build for clients — a filmed opening that resolves into the mark, one variable typeface carrying the whole voice, and diagrams drawn in code rather than pasted in. Entry one, because it is the proof we can show without asking anyone’s permission.
The platform site for The Intentional Contractor: Jeff Patterson’s book, reader resource library, and coaching practice for builders. A timber frame at first light opens the story, the resource library sits behind an access phrase printed in the book itself, and every page carries the reader toward one of two doors: read the book, or apply for coaching. Live at theintentionalcontractor.com.
Thinware’s product site for the SimpleVM hypervisor, built as a mission control room. The hero is a live simulation of a three-host cluster: the virtual machines migrate between hosts on their own, and the counters on screen report what the simulation is actually doing. Below it, a typed deploy sequence, the real console, an honest price comparison, and the complete 26-chapter manual, in dark and light.
A concept build for a boutique trial firm. Evening gravitas in navy and bronze, a headline that makes the firm’s argument in one breath, and eight sections that walk a prospective client from the verdict record to the intake form. One self-contained file with type and imagery embedded, so it loads fast and answers to no one else’s server.
A concept build for a regenerative Akaushi ranch at 7,800 feet in the Gunnison Valley, in an alpine editorial voice. The land comes first: a Land Ledger that counts up the ranch’s soil and water numbers, an interactive grazing-rotation map, and elevation strips between the sections. Beef shares come with a deposit estimator, so the buyer knows the figure before the phone call.
A concept build for a Panhandle fullblood Wagyu seedstock operation, laid out like a herd book. The sire directory is the centrepiece: eight bulls with EPDs, genotypes, and straw prices, filterable by bloodline and sortable by number, each opening a three-generation pedigree drawn in SVG. Buyers add sires to an inquiry as they read, and the form arrives with the list already filled in.
A concept build for a Black Wagyu ranch on the San Mateo coast, presented as a magazine issue rather than a brochure. A fog bank drifts through the masthead headline, the sections run as numbered chapters with drop caps and pull quotes, and Field Notes turns vertical scrolling into a horizontal film strip of six dated entries. The monthly cut and beef shares close the issue.
Thinware’s launch site for vOpsCentral, a single console for VMware, Proxmox, KVM, XCP-ng, Hyper-V, and SimpleVM hosts. Behind the marketing page sits the product itself: a working demo of the console against a simulated two-datacenter fleet, with live telemetry, a task engine, alarms, and a command palette that reaches any VM in a keystroke. The console itself is the next entry down.
Part of 08 · vOpsCentral
The working console behind the launch site, running against a simulated two-datacenter fleet: six hosts, thirty-seven VMs, and telemetry that ticks every two seconds. Filter the inventory, open a host or a VM, watch the task drawer, and reach anything with the command palette. Every control is live; nothing here is a mock-up.
A concept build for a senior-only software studio, styled as an industrial nameplate: load ratings, lot numbers, and a manifest where the menu would be. A looping steel hero, three case studies with the figures that survived an invoice review, and a work-order form in place of a contact page. Five pages, one small stylesheet, no framework.
A concept build for a Wagyu-cross ranch selling beef by the box. The butcher’s map is the centrepiece: an engraved copper steer where every primal is a live region, and a click lists the cuts, grades, and prices and drops them into the box. A golden-hour pasture opens the page, and the box builder follows the visitor down the site with a running total.
