Our experimental marketing was a success. Our pretend “fry sauce Christmas tree” gained national attention. Read the original updates below and see a list of just a fraction of the dozens of news outlets that featured our story.

Ha!  Looks like the word is spreading about our fry sauce Christmas tree.  Take a look at where we’ve been featured in the media.

Shocking Developments

Today was an interesting day.  The power dimmed out a time or two across a few minute span at out Layton web design office before finally going out for quite some time.  Come to find out, there was an accident at a construction site up the street.  A backhoe that was being unloaded hit a power pole.  We hope the construction crew are all ok.

As for us, luckily we all work on laptops and had enough batter life to finish out the day.  As for internet, we turned on our cell phones and tethered to their data connection.  Technology is amazing.  To read more about what happened, click here.

Student Desks as Office Desks?

While we work hard to build quality web designs for Utah businesses, we also like to play.  While joking about a new desk for our conference room, we considered balancing hard work with fun and entertained the idea of student desks for meetings.  And, what would you know, the DI just happened to have some this week.

Not sure how the other web designers in the office will like them but, at just $15 a piece, how could you say no?!

Look how far we’ve come since we first started the office remodel.  Here are some before and after pictures.

We still have some touch up work and, obviously, have to move in the furniture.  What an amazing improvement though, don’t you think?  Below is a before and after of the same area but, from the reverse angle.  You can see an item or two of furniture temporarily placed in the waiting area.  Our new shades for the office windows just arrived too.  We can’t wait to put them up.

A tricky part of creating an office for a web design company in Utah is to balance a a professional environment with a welcoming one.  How do you offer an environment that looks professional without being stuffy.  We went with a modern look using white laminate floors with vibrant accent walls (bright orange – not pictured) and added comfortable furniture in traditional darks.

Speaking of office floors, man, those were tricky.  The laminate floors in the office were, by far, the most time consuming part of remodeling this beautiful (but old) office.  In celebratory fashion, we excitedly placed the last laminate flooring piece for our office.
