My brother\u2019s the master here, but I can at least let you in on my<\/em> experience when it comes to the website and design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"web<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

First things first, we got very lucky in the fact that both Corey and I have a very similar design aesthetic: clean, simple, and white (which you may have been able to sense when we talked about logos<\/a>). Had we not had the same overall sense of design style, this process could\u2019ve been far more complicated (and frustrating) than it ended up being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After reviewing a number of beautiful WordPress themes<\/a> out there, we both decided that the Kipoo theme<\/a> design suited most of our needs. Corey took what he liked and didn\u2019t like from the initial idea of the theme in order to create a beautiful, clean site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My brother didn\u2019t show me anything until everything was done. And boy, was I pleasantly surprised! I thought he did an excellent job and there were plenty of cool surprises that I hadn\u2019t expected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are always things that will need to be edited after the initial site is shown. <\/strong>For those of you not<\/em> in the web space, make sure you prepare for this. Edits are easy and will need to be made; it\u2019s just a fact of life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
