Djemba

Posted on by

Djemba is a Paris-based guitarist and trumpeter who needed a centralized way to manage his gigs, recordings, song lyrics and poetry. This page was a pleasure to work on, not only because of the lively, multi-faceted content, but for the clean, minimal design the content inspired. For the logo, and much of the typography, we endeavored to infuse the design with references to Djemba’s instruments of choice, without overstating the obvious ( = yes, this is a music site…)

At Miniboom, we delight in multi-language support, and Djemba.net was the perfect opportunity to develop this site in French and English.

We are particularly enthusiastic about CSS and Web Standards at Miniboom, and achieving XHTML valid code is our goal with every site. This means that your site should look and feel the same between different browsers (like Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Safari, and Firefox), but also between different OSs (such as Windows, Linux, OSX, Iphone OS, etc).

We invite you to contact us with any inquiries about the multitude ways to display music tracks…we keep up with audio developments so that your tracks are elegantly displayed and easy to play.

At miniboom, no job is too large or small. Changing or modifying an existing site is an efficient way to maintain or redefine your Web presence. Jeanne Suica’s original site was made for her from an Online service, creating cookie cutter Web sites. That’s where a personal touch can make all the difference. This HTML site started as only 8 pages and quickly developed into a custom coded and designed bi-lingual site.

Of our bi-lingual fashion-based sites, Ms. Suica has remained one of Miniboom’s most loyal clients. Initially only contacting us for a facelift of an existing site,Miniboom has made countless updates, a sister site, and help with the set up of an Online store.

Ms. Suica is a vintage clothing expert, running her own appraisal and auction service, she also buys and sells to private clients around the world. So, when she finds a Féraud or Jean Paul Gaultier, it’s important to display them in their best possible light. We have done this in a simple HTML format with modified Javascript, best for delivering content quickly and on all devices large and small.

Under construction

The law firm of Anna Ottenhoff, Natacha Britsch and Patrice Selly, avocats à la cour, needed a Web site that would not only reflect their commitment to the people, but also as an informative stop off point for the many people they advocate for. This Paris-based law firm specializes in immigration law and advocacy. To serve this population, it was important to launch the Web site with bi-lingual capabilities.

Multiple pages direct to the main, with different sections related to the different areas of law covered. This simple HTML format uses PHP to move from French to English texts and vice versa. Javascript is used on several pages as an added design trait with a picture slide show of those the firm has won cases for. Drop down menus also reflect XHTML uses.

The firm also requested logo design. Starting with the tri-color theme, Miniboom came upon this design in cool contemporary colors that mirrored the Web site. A simple circle in the middle as a symbol of continuity. This very minimal logo design is now used on letterhead, envelopes, business cards and signs. In this case, a clear identity is key.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English.
Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose http://miniboom.net/Miniboom/wp-admin/post.php?unfoldmenu=1(injected humour and the like).
