Objectified Trailer

I thoroughly enjoyed Hel­vetica, and I cannot wait to see Objec­ti­fied. Another fan­tas­tic sound­track, and another fan­tas­tic sub­ject matter for design nerds who love this sort of stuff.

I think it pre­mieres at SXSW this year, so hope­fully by summer I’ll get to see it.

If you're new here, you may want to sub­scribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Helvetica Madness!

I think I might have gone over­board on Hel­vetica around here. I plan on making some tweaks to the site next week­end – stay tuned!

What We Have Been Up To

It’s been a little while since we’ve updated the site, but no time like the present to bring every­one up to date on the hap­pen­ings at Square­One HQ!

We’ve taken on a few projects lately that have focused more on web­site devel­op­ment and less on the design aspect of things. One actu­ally has required Ruby on Rails, and it has been a blast learn­ing a lot more about the ins and outs of this pow­er­ful but simple devel­op­ment plat­form. If you’ve never heard of Ruby on Rails, it’s basi­cally a frame­work that allows devel­op­ers to focus on the impor­tant aspects of a web­site and not on the super tech­ni­cal (or super tedious) issues like data­base con­fig­u­ra­tion, form cre­ation, and user admin­is­tra­tion. RoR allows you to quickly get a site together for the client to look at and use.

We’ve been work­ing on build­ing a reser­va­tion system for a local busi­ness to use inter­nally, and it should be done fairly soon.
