Monday was a truly amazing day at Tecture as five unique sites were launched all within the same day! It's like Christmas in October!  Merry Halloween!

In the coming days, each project will have a deeper write-up to describe the details and finer points of each one, but the excitement here is pretty hard to contain right now so we want to give you a brief overview of each right now:

Lincoln Hall: this new music venue's site was designed and built by Some Odd Pilot using Tecture's Site Ignition platform. Lincoln Hall is an extension of the very popular Schubas (another Tecture client) and converted from the old 3-Penny Cinema theater.  Lincoln Hall's new site handles its own ecommerce transactions through Site Ignition and, on the day of launch, had already sold tickets to their opening shows!  Mike Mroz integrated the ecommerce into the site developed by Some Odd Pilot.

Hanaford Law: Tecture designed and built this website through our Site Ignition platform for a small law firm which has been handling client cases for over 25 years. Helping those who are victims of loss and serious injury due to transportation, construction, workplace and product accidents, Tecture was happy to help Robert H. Hanaford create a new identity on the web.  Tecture designer Mike Mroz designed the site and Ricky Ruggles developed.

Burke, Warren, MacKay & Serritella P.C.: another law firm site, Tecture has worked with Burke, Warren, MacKay & Serritella P.C. for a number of years now, and we're pleased to announce this complete redesign. Burke, Warren, MacKay & Serritella P.C. focus on pressing legal concerns facing businesses today. Tecture is especially proud to work on this site as this law firm is one of the few in Chicago to name a woman as a partner across its marquee, immediately setting themselves up as a progressive thinker amongst its peers.  Designs for the site by Seth Dupre and Ricky Ruggles developed in Site Ignition.

Global Adrenaline: Tecture recently built and launched Global Adrenaline's website through its Site Ignition platform, and yesterday we launched a new ecommerce ticket ordering system for the site and its myriad of exciting events.  Global Adrenaline is considered the premiere nightlife promotional company in Chicago, handling many special appearances by today's hottest celebrities.  Global Adrenaline now has the capability to sell tickets to these hot events through its own site. One of Tecture's talented designers, Mike Mroz, has nearly single-handedly designed and developed this new feature for Global Adrenaline with some help from the fine touch of one of Tecture's partners, Tony Moy.

Majority Share: Tecture is working with this start-up to launch a complete custom online business. Using the tried-and-true method of creating buying power for the public through mass-organization on daily deals, but throwing a very unique and entertaining stock market design and mentality on it, Majority Share sits poised to take the market by storm! Though the site has officially launched, we'll announce when their business and their first deals go live (tentatively late October). We're really excited about this one and believe that Majority Share's popularity will pay dividends to its membership!  This project was a total team effort for members of Tecture.  Matt Leigh and Mike Mroz collaborated from the beginning on the very sharp and distinctive new logo while Seth Dupre from the design team handled the look and feel of the site itself.  Malerie Kaplan was the spearhead in the site's development, tying together the site's functions as well as the various communications between site and user while the excitement of the deal progresses through the day. And finally Anthony Cooper brought his Flash talents to develop the very distinctive graph area which is, arguably, the focal point of the entire site.
