Field 2 is uniquely positioned to work with agencies and designers who have a strong commitment to their clients, but who need assistance with the web sector. Over 20 years of experience designing and implementing web sites and services has come largely in partnership with some of the largest agencies in the area.

Field 2 offers the following services:

Precision html/css cutup. We can take your prototype in any format--Photoshop, Fireworks, Illustrator, Indesign, PDF, even Quark--and convert it into a functioning site, built with clean, valid code.

Wordpress integration. Our sites are built with Wordpress as the underlying Content Management System (CMS)--meaning your site is easy to update by YOU, and that it can include the most powerful plugins available. Wordpress has been called the most search engine friendly CMS available. We can also take your existing, static website and integrate Wordpress into it.

Web design. Field 2 specializes in planning and prototyping websites and web applications with user-friendly interfaces, beautiful icons, and clear, to-the-point copy. You'll be rewarded with a site that welcomes new visitors and retains existing ones.

Icon Design Icons designed by Field 2 are built to enhance the user experience and visual branding of web sites and web applications. Our goal is to built the very best icon for the task it represents. We consider a variety of factors, target audience, best practices, and user context in determining the best design for the job.

Our user interface icons are designed pixel by pixel, at their target resolution, and never upscaled or downscaled. In this way, the finished product is as crisp as possible. We are experts at producing multiple versions of the same icon at a variety of dimensions, from the current hi-res standard of 512x512 all the way down to 8x8.

Ben Dunkle, of Field 2 Design, has created icons for such notable clients as Wordpress, Automattic, Gallery 3, Tine 2.0, Mentholatum Inc., and AAA.
