About (Laurence Mercer)
Hi I'm Laurence Mercer, a London based freelance web designer and Drupal theming specialist. I make creative, standards compliant, accessible websites for a range of clients throughout the world.
Skills:
I have several years experience of designing with XHTML, CSS, PHP and MySQL, and of using programs such as Dreamweaver, Photoshop, and Flash.
Drupal:
I have an excellent knowledge of Drupal - the world’s premier Open Source CMS. I’ve designed many Drupal based sites, and, indeed, the Lhmdesign site itself is built on Drupal. I also write a blog about Drupal theming, and contribute when possible to the drupal.org community - in the forums, providing documentation, and (very shortly) contributing a theme.
I’ve been a full-time freelancer for two years now, and am always happy to be offered a great new project.
About (The Site)
Lhmdesign is built (naturally) on Drupal.
This is the third incarantion of the site, which incorporates a new design, improved IA, and an updated portfolio.
Standards:
Apart from the contact page, the whole Lhmdesign site is valid XHTML 1.0 strict and valid CSS. The markup is also semantically correct and completely XHTML/CSS based, so as to effectively separate content from structure.
You will shortly be able to find a far more detailed explanation of the site's design in an upcoming blog post.
The logo:
The Lhmdesign logo is a composite of the letters ‘l’, ‘h’, and ‘m’ rotated through -45 degrees.
