Africa through a lens

Having great content to work with certainly makes the design process much easier. Africa through a lens is a one-page highlight of a collection of images taken by the Foreign Office in Africa.
The micro site uses a number of interactive elements to show the best of the collection displayed on one page. The page was built using HTML, CSS and jQuery.

Completely cakes was a total redesign of a client’s website that was in need of a full makeover. There were a number of problems that the client was facing:

The design was out of date.
