1 Etched in Elegance Catering  (www.redding-catering.com)
Etched in Elegance is a catering company in Redding, CA. Robin Lentz of Etched in Elegance asked me to make a website to attract future clients. After discussing all facets of their business, I got a very clear picture of this high class catering business. Etched in Elegance is specialized in customized catering, with excellent food, made from good quality and fresh ingredients (yes I tasted it personally!!) and the most elegant presentation, which you wouldn't expect from a small company located in Redding. This became the foundation for the website.
We opted for a grips and clear looking site, showing their excellent food and presentation in all details. With this task in mind I went with them on a few catering events and took photos. I was able to incorporate 175 different pictures in the website and still remain the a grips and clear character we had in mind.
Besides the website I designed a new business card for Etched in Elegance and burned 50 CD's with special optimized large format pictures, they can give clients to take home.
I wish Etched in Elegance all the success, I believe they deserve. I can really recommend this catering company to everyone. Please visit their website and read the review, Robin Lentz wrote about the way Kapsenberg Website Design work.

2 Victoria Garden  (www.kapsenbergdesign.com/garden)
Victoria Garden is a website for gardeners in the Redding area.
The main theme is Victoria Garden with its plants. The site retrieves all kind of useful plant information like growing habit, flower colors, hardiness  of plants, etc. and presents them in many lists, users can call up.
Loads of photosfrom Victoria Garden and other gardens in the Redding area (taken by Kapsenberg Design) together with blogs written by different garden experts can be helpful for all gardeners.
An automatic plant managing system, programmed with PHP and MySQL, was designed by Kapsenberg Design to fill the databases, so when one plant is inserted or deleted, the whole site is automatically adapted.
Javascript was used to program the different slide shows.

3 Churn Creek Golf Association  (www.ccgagolfredding.com)
Rick Faller of Churn Greek Golf Association approached us to set up a website for their members. They requested a site which foremost informs their members and by doing so, attract new members.
Together we defined the qualities that set them apart from the competing golf clubs of Redding. This was distilled into a message and incorporated into the site.
The next task was to determine the content of the website. The challenge in this part lies in determining which information is relevant to the users and how to distribute it. In the end it culminated into a site with 70 pages.
The site makes ready use of pictures. These can be printed out by their members. Rick Faller provided all the original photographs and they were optimized to be used on the web by Kapsenberg design. Kapsenberg design updates this website after every tournament to provide their members with the latest results and pictures.

In Januari 2010 the site was updated. A interactive bulletin board was added, where members, staff and administrators can add their comments, questions and news, and a membership managing system was installed. With that membership managing system the administrators are able to add data about their members in a databases and get out all the info about their member like: contact information; who has or hasn't paid; who has got his birthday that month; how many members there are etc.

4 Ten Have Advies  (www.tenhaveadvies.nl)
Mrs. Ten Have is a legal adviser on real estate matters in the Netherlands, particularly assigned by the public domain. She wanted for all a website with lots of specialized information, with the intention that her clients could educate themselves and be referred to it.
After looking together at different websites she opted for a plain (without logo), user friendly information site in green tones. This website was designed with an emphasis on ease of use and information to be readily available.
Every page is accessible through the menu, which can be found on every page of the site. The menu makes extensive use of Headers and sub headers.
Kapsenberg design updates this website regularly. All our communication was over phone (at our expense), skype and e-mail.
