For the second time, we did a complete redesign of the PechaKucha Night website, called PechaKucha 20X20. I was responsible of the whole design, and also worked on HTML/CSS integration.

For those who never heard about PechaKucha, here is what the site itself say:

PechaKucha 20x20 is a simple presentation format where you show 20 images, each for 20 seconds. The images forward automatically and you talk along to the images.

We completely rebuilt the system, and also made quite drastic changes to the global design and accessibility, trying to rethink information hierarchy and to simplify the design. We also integrated the blog to the global website, and added many new features:

• You are now able to see presentations online, directly on the site.
• You can now login with both your PechaKucha account or your Facebook one.
• iCal export, to keep in touch with the calendar.
• Geolocalisation: the site will display events in your area in priority.
• …and many small usability enhancement using Javascript/Ajax.

Nua is a young company specialized in the Brazilian Waxing in Japan. I let you browse the nuajapan.com FAQ for more information about the techniques. We used symfony1.0 to build the website, running in 2 languages, with a little administration interface to update products, news and campaigns.

How can you refuse to work for someone who claim to sell the “the one gift that guarantees a woman will take her clothes off” ?

This, is the 3rd version of the USN website. And after the “quick and simple” one, the HTML/CSS/AJAX one, It was the time for the Full-Flash version!

Nicolas Carteron is a translator, interpreter and copywriter, working in english, japanese and french. He asked me to build his website.

I created a very simple CMS using text files to store pages content, so it could be easily edited by the client without even the need for a database. The site is in three languages: english, french and japanese.
