The new Peter Fasano site is online now! w3sights redesigned the site. My goal was to create an elegant web site with a simple layout for presenting Peter Fasano’s beautiful, and sometimes quirky, fabrics and wallcoverings. This became largely a matter of removing all unnecessary details, which is not as easy as it may seem.
Each time you visit the site, a different fabric or wallcovering comes up on the Home page. To accomplish this, I set the Home page up to use a random image generator which picks a fabric or wallcovering image out of a folder and displays it.
On the new site you are now able to view Peter Fasano’s entire collection of fabrics and wallcoverings, in all of their colorways. The site uses Zen Cart’s cataloging, additional image, and add-on lightbox features. And it is a good example of how Zen Cart can truly be customized to meet the personality and needs of the business owner. All customizations were made using Zen Cart’s template system that separates the look-and-feel from the code and logic behind the site.
I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that with Zen Cart the site owner can update all of the content easily themselves. Zen Cart has a powerful Administration tool which, once you are familiar with it , makes maintaining a site a matter of just logging in.
One of the comments I received was: “Thank you for your hard work. The aesthetics of the site are quite beautiful.” Please visit the new Peter Fasano site, I hope you enjoy looking at the fabrics and wallcoverings, I certainly did while working on the site!
