Vision Works Optical website link: http://www.visionworkseyewearonline.com

A website created for Vision Works Optical, a retail optical company with locations across the Vancouver Lower Mainland. This website serves as a marketing brand showcase for the company itself as well for e-commerce purposes for their customers. Their customers can purchase some of their products on the website instead of going to their store locations. The website was built using a CMS e-commerce system from a third-party company then I was responsible for the website front-end design, graphics and content management.

The Power of Social Media

With the recent closure of the Disney Store in Metrotown, I have experienced the power that social media.With notice of the closure, the news seemed to spread like wildfire across the internet. There was even a customer who had created a facebook “petition” page which had grown rapidly to over 1,500 people in a matter of weeks and then was written in a local newspaper. This is just one example of how effective social media can be in bringing people with like interests or beliefs together.

I guess that’s why all the celebrities are now on Twitter and Facebook now

I have created my brand around the image of a dolphin. Dolphins are intelligent creatures who are also friendly, playful and hardworking. I feel that the persona of dolphins best describes my personality and also my design style.

Why TiffyDesigns? Those who are close to me often call me Tiffy as a nick name. The fact that I am a designer allowed me to create the name “TiffyDesigns.”
