Trowbridge is the Rolls Royce of the Interior design world. They provide high quality images to interior designers. The range of photography that is available through Trowbridge had been long overlooked, so I built this site to raise the profile of these classic photographs and enable designers to order prints online.
This was my introduction to the power of database driven websites using MySQL and PHP, and I learnt a huge amount in the process. There were also a range of challenges to try and make the ordering process as simple as possible, which required a long process of refinements.
One aspect of the design which I was particularly pleased with was the frame around the images. The frame is separate from the image itself, which means that the frame image will only have to load once no matter how many images you look at. This increased the efficiency of the site.
