Five didn’t create the billboard design for S.K.I.N. Medical Spa, but we did design their logo and website. We just thought we would share our work and a great client being shown on a larger scale.

Not every project for Five involves creating a new web design.  Sometimes a company will come to us satisfied with their design, but in need of better technology to run it.  We can convert an existing website to our content management system (CMS) and improve numerous areas.

Streeter Companies, a Maple Grove, MN Commercial Property firm came to us with this situation.  They were satisfied with their current web design, but wanted to be able to change web content themselves, get more traffic from Google and offer more features on the site for users.

The Website CMS Conversion Provided:

• Control – Streeter can now add new pages to their website, new property listings, change or add photos and more. Our SMC tool gives them complete control of their website.
• Features – Streeter’s former website only allowed them to display a PDF and a few details on each property for lease. We upgraded each listing to display photos in a slideshow, interactive Google maps of the location, overview text of the property, auto PDF flyer creation, contact forms and social sharing features.
• Search Engine Friendly – The move to our CMS upgraded the Streeter website to keyword URLs, HTML & XML sitemaps, semantic content structure and internal linking.  These SEO enhancements are the start to their website earning better trust and rankings from the search engines.

So if your web design is acceptable and you need a better web platform for control and to build upon, give us a shout about converting to our CMS.

With a fresh face, S.K.i.N. Medical Spa’s new web design has hit the Internet.  S.K.i.N. is a skincare and anti-aging services spa located in Blaine, MN.

S.K.i.N. has been a fun project and client for us as we’ve had our hands in many elements of helping launch this business. From the logo design, to photography, to the website, to a social media campaign.

This web design project features:

• Custom web design
• Transparency & JavaScript elements
• Built on our CMS platform
• WordPress custom skincare blog
• Custom drop-down menus
• Search engine optimization

Here are a few photos from our photo shoot this week as well.

Five was recently lucky enough to be chosen to design the very first logo for a new business in the skincare industry here in the Twin Cites.  S.K.i.N Medical Spa became a reality this summer and we played a big part by designing their logo and website (more on the website in a later post).

Below are the logo concepts we designed to start the process:

With just a few minor tweaks to one of the logo concepts, we had ourselves a winner. Sometimes one of the concepts is just the right look, right off the bat.

Here is the final logo design  for S.K.i.N Medical Spa:

A company’s logo is so incredibly important in it’s branding, personality, perception, pride and tone.  Both S.K.i.N and Five couldn’t be happier with the final logo result.

The beauty of a well designed, CSS coded and simple layout is the ability to easily re-skin the web design if needed.  This was the case recently for the Buffalo Area Chamber of Commerce as they designed a new logo and needed to not only add the logo to the website, but update the color scheme.

The Old Website & Color Scheme

The website re-skin with the new logo turned out great and it only took a couple of hours.  That’s the flexibility and efficiency you get when you design a website the right way.
