Rethink(ip)
Overview
Rethink IP is three intellectual property lawyers who get the web. In big way. Their site mixes their personal and professional lives. This was a redesign of an older MT template. Our mission was to bring a bit of lawyerly funk and kick it up, while retaining a conservative tone.
What we did
Design and development. Build to web standards on Movable Type 3.2. In order to give more weight to the personalities involved in the blog, we’re highlighting posts from the author’s individual blogs right in the header. We’ve also included some new javascript effects on the sidebar (visit the site to check it out). We’ve used the effects to improve the usability of the sidebar. Most blog sidebars are overladen with information - it becomes very difficult to locate exactly what you’re after. By hiding unused sidebar elements, the user is more able to find the category of information she’s after.
