Ric Mcconaghy Pty Ltd Website

Creator of brilliant play spaces for children of all abilities and ages. Ric Mcconaghy Pty Ltd (RMPL) create child playspaces from conceptual design through project management to completion. Ric Mcconaghy the director is especially busy with many projects in progress at any one time and little free time for housekeeping a web site (typical for a small business). Ric's existing web site was ageing and needed a revamp to make it more dynamic and appealing. Ric also needed the ability to maintain the projects, text and photos himself.

Simplicity with elegance, while hard to achieve are the design principles we used for developing his new website. We started with a web content management approach which is a means of dynamically adding projects (text & pictures for each playspace) to a template for the website. A stylistic template was then developed to reflect the ric mcconaghy corporate style.

The end result is that Ric has a professional web site under his own control. Ric now manages changes to his projects such as text and pictures and is able to add new projects as they are completed. Where more complex changes are needed Ric contacts DCB.NET.AU and we work together to update the website.

Ric's prospects & customers have commented on how much improved his new web site is. Ric uses the website with prospects during sales & design workshops to show in a practical way the application of playspace equipment for differing abilities.
