My husband and I used Blueshoon to build our company website for The Play Cafe, a Chicagoland…read morein-home entertainment service for kids. This is the first time we have built a website--or started a business--so the confidence and direction that Blueshoon brought to our project were so helpful. In short, The Play Cafe worked with a separate graphic design group to originate a brand, color scheme, and general design. We then came to Blueshoon to transition all of those ideas to a clear, clean website design that would be easy to navigate. Check out our finished product, which embodies everything we asked for (theplaycafechicago.com). One huge reason I liked working with Blueshoon is that they helped me to be self-sufficient in web maintenance. They took the time to go over the inner workings of the site, so I know how to edit or update text and add certain features which we will be ready for in the future. As we know, teaching a man to fish will help him get a lot further in life! Blueshoon took the time to make sure we were set well beyond our meetings together.

Blueshoon has helped my web marketing firm out of many different and tough situations over the last…read more3 years that I have been working with them. I actually have a Chicago office and another one in Los Angeles. As it turned out, one day I was in the Chicago area and had a very high stakes MYSQL coding problem that crippled a major part of my business. My core staff being back in LA was unable to solve the problem. A friend of mine had referred me to Blueshoon after hours and they responded. Not only did they solve the problem, they made my server and sites run better than they did before the problem. Following that time, I have sub-contracted many projects to them from graphic design, to web applications, and even moved all of my hosting needs over to them. They are able to help me with my sites and server problems better than any hosting solution even if it is managed because they are familiar with my work details. The other thing I want to point out is they are OUTSTANDING when it comes to working on billing solutions for sites in e-commerce. They really are able to do a lot for you. They have installed analytic tracking and even mined data for me to tell me how to get my conversions across many different projects I have brought them into higher. They have been able to cut through multiple layers of business issues from tech to marketing. A very big reason to consider this group is that they have a very strong number of abilities from creating a site, web apps, design, coding functions, to user experience and even the marketing. I really like that they bridge marketing with technology and can do all of the data extraction as well as problem solving. They communicate very well with tech and marketing people and understand how to bridge the gap between the how (technology) and the why (marketing). You won't find a more able group of people who can cover the spread of needs you would have in the digital space better than Blueshoon. They are a tremendous value and can really do it all. I have yet to throw a complex problem at them that they have not had an answer for. Just amazing work from this crew and I cannot possibly endorse them in a way that does them any justice!

Thank you WEB312, Josh Singer and the team for always following up on my business and website. I appreciate all the hard driven work.

It's great working with Web 312…read more I was introduced to Josh from Web 312 over 2 years ago. He provided a quick fix solution to our website, which was a disaster to begin with. He helped us out when we didn't have much of a budget and created a bit of functionality to our site. Then last year, we chose to upgrade the event page on our site to include fields and gather information. Web 312 delivered this feature quickly and with perfect accuracy. It was exactly what we needed and upgraded our site from functional to decent. Finally, this year, after working with them for the last 2 years and watching them consistently deliver, I had them redo our site completely. They met with me as many times as I asked them to, they were quick to respond to all inquiries, updates and requests I made. They delivered the features that I specifically asked for and added great insight when I needed a little help. Most importantly, they completed the project exactly when they said they were going to. In fact, I told them I needed the site earlier than I actually needed it done just to be safe. But they were on time, which means I got the product earlier than expected...which I KNOW from years of experience is something that rarely happens with web/graphic design projects. I now have a great website that represents our business. You can visit it at www.citizenbar.com I would highly recommend working with Web 312 for any web related project. You will be satisfied with all aspects of your experience.

As the silly Seinfeld reference goes, Art Vandelay would be totally jealous of the work that MGLM…read morearchitects do. Mark Garzon has been an immense help on two projects for the crib. During a kitchen redesign, Mark sketched a clever reconfiguration of our refrigerator and washer/dryer layouts. This new arrangement breathed new life into the dining area and opened up space! His ideas are sophisticated but he's able to execute the approach in a way that's practical so the contractors doing the grunt work are able to run with it. And let me tell you from the horror stories I've heard when designers/engineers/contractors can't see eye to eye, you don't want to be caught in the middle of that my friends! Especially if it's in your own house! Mark also made some great recommendations for a custom marble coffee table. My handyman Uncle had a beautiful slab of marble in his backyard for years and was kind enough to donate it to me. We wanted to design a minimal steel base that would complement our modern white leather couch in the living room. Mark drew up some plans -- but perhaps most impressive was that he was able to point us to a metal worker in Suburban Chicago! A graceful referral such as this is priceless! To end it with a Seinfeld nod... if you need help with your next design project.. these guys are the "Master of your domain!"

Having hired MGLM to design and oversee the build-out of my retail store and company headquarters -…read moreI couldn't be happier with the quality of the design, the construction, and the attention I received throughout the project. Matt and Elizabeth are creative thinkers who don't compromise function for aesthetics - an important trait in architects who dream big and then when it comes time to living/working in the space, you realize how dysfunctional "the big design" is. I'd attach pictures of my store if I could (maybe you can see it in my profile, not sure about that). I can't tell you the number of compliments I receive and I can't adequately explain just how great it feels to be in the space. My parameters included a "green design" with all recycled materials and Matt and Elizabeth researched the options and were able to keep me in budget, on time, and in keeping with the strict eco-friendly guidelines I required. I wholeheartedly recommend MGLM and look forward to having the opportunity to work with them again.

COULD do without the pink kitchen and yellow and black bathroom tiles. Aesthetics aside, there were some serious layout issues with the house that made it seem smaller than it actually was. Before just hiring a general contractor, we talked to Jereme to see if he had some design ideas that would be more interesting than just "knock down some walls and put new drywall up." Jereme worked really hard to keep within budget while still adding some fun touches that everyone comments on, like a reclaimed wood soffit that defines the kitchen area. He also used every square inch of the home to make sure we didn't have any wasted spaces. We used barn doors to make old bathrooms feel bigger and built ins to make the most of slanted attic walls. Overall, everything was on time and any extras were clearly laid out. Communication over email was great and he was very organized as we went along with the to do list and keeping all of the contractors on task. I would highly recommend Design Insight and will definitely use them again if we buy another house.

A gorgeous, spacious, cook's kitchen, open floor plan, open curved staircase to basement, mud room and outdoor BBQ station. Jereme is a creative architect with a keen eye for details...not to mention a great, easy-going guy! We had a couple of initial meetings to discuss our wants and needs and then Jereme dove into the design and ultimately presented a few design concepts. We quickly zeroed in on the one that seemed best and collectively tweaked the design and components to best suit our needs. Jereme hired the construction crew and personally directed and supervised their work. He was on the site every day and in frequent contact with us. The end result is FABULOUS and more than we hoped for!! Jereme was great to work with. Very responsive to all of our questions, concerns and ideas...and he never showed any ego. He was also extremely budget conscious and economical. The project took longer than quoted, but the end result is a 10!! Highly recommended!!!
