Testimonial

In the spring of 2004, Zero One Design, an established west coast design company working within the sectors of culture and technology, put out a search for a “good museum”. They wanted to “give back” by providing the expertise and design elements for the creation and implementation of a new website, pro bono, to an institution whose site was non-existent (our situation) or in need of major repair. After submitting our application and discussing the project with the Zero One partners, our museum was selected from a pool of potential candidates and became the very fortunate recipient of this generous offer. We began work on this project in the late spring of 2005 and through many meetings, voicemail, Email and otherwise, the project was completed and launched in early Summer 2006.

Zero One Design generously provided the professionalism, technical expertise, creative design talents, camaraderie, patience and understanding, making this exciting, very worthwhile project a true success. The experience and knowledge I have gained through the many discussions and consults with the partners has been invaluable and has provided the basis of understanding needed to continue growing our new website. It has been my pleasure to work alongside energetic, creative minds and I hope we continue to pursue future joint projects together.
