Scott Hull Associates: “…Art Works” among Creators, Clients, and Fans

The new Scott Hull Associates site

Scott Hull Associates is a respected representative for a varied and lauded stable of talented artists. When Scott and Co. needed a site that would deliver more control to each of the artists they represent, we worked from a beautifully simple design by our frequent collaborator, and Scott Hull-represented illustrator, Penelope Dullaghan. With Penny’s gorgeous look-and-feel, user interface collaboration by the brilliant Josh Sears, and lots of input from Scott, his staff, and their represented artists, we crafted a new site with a new look, powered by a multi-user site manager in the form of WordPress-µ.

It’s open-source foundation software that can empower many team members — and, with commenting and RSS syndication throughout, associates outside the team — to contribute and craft their corner of the site into their best face forward for the organization. We tried to build Scott’s vision of the most immediate, informative portfolio preview in the business. As each artist grows their sample work and their blog in the new format, we hope the site will be almost like a sit-down interview with an artist you might hire for your logo, brand image, or design project.

Federal Bureau of Illustration

Von Glitschka launched Federal Bureau of Illustration today, a site for illustration case studies with one of the most fun metaphors we’ve ever had the pleasure of implementing into WordPress.

In Von’s words:

“I’ve seen a lot of case study sites. Most are kind of boring and far too serious so I wanted to avoid that when I created my own. The site is done as a tongue-in-cheek play off the metaphor of the FBI. There are a total of seven case files in the archive right now and I’ll add more as time goes on so if you subscribe to the RSS you’ll be notified when I post new case files.”
