I think this site needs to be simply responsive as well.

Thoughts? @bduimstra, @Stassi?

bduimstra commented 12 years ago

Yes. A million times, yes.

dalanmiller commented 12 years ago

Alright loaded in bootstrap-responsive, don't really want to use the bootstrap designs but the grid layout and responsiveness is fine. We just have to write our own media queries.

bduimstra commented 12 years ago

Yeah. A site like this should be pretty easy to build as responsive. It's not going to be too intricate, so I think we could even make our own responsive template instead of using bootstrap.

Would it make sense to do like one of those long form pages? With an absolute navbar at the top that will scroll you down to where the content for that section is? Downsite: lots of scrolling. Upside: All one page, and one easy solution for collapsing everything?

http://www.atlanta.co.nz/#home - Something like this might be also cool to do?

bduimstra commented 12 years ago

I definitely like the last example there. I think overall, putting everything on one page will probably work. if you think about it, this site won't need to be very big.

That being said, maybe we should get together and develop a site map or design brief so we can hammer down all that we should include.

Well I say! Let's lunch over it? :shipit:
