IDAT205 – Pluxel Design

Simon Batty, Tom Saunders, Scott Addelsee and I have formed Pluxel Design as part of this project. Our group has a mixed skill set which puts our collaboration in a good position to do well.

The name pluxel is a corruption of pixel and Plymouth. After lengthy discussion the name was chosen because it is short, stands out, was available to register as a domain and relatively easy to deal with in terms of SEO. ‘Design’ can be appended to the end in order to describe our purpose. Various accounts have been set up, including twitter, as outputs for our content and to protect the brand. We have registered the domain name pluxel.co.uk which now points to a temporary location on my own server used for development for the sake of SEO.

The general purpose of the site is to produce websites primarily for small businesses and organisations at competitive rates as well as showcasing relevant digital art projects undertaken by the team. Selected content will be aggregated from the team in addition to content generated specifically for Pluxel Design to ensure high and consistent quality, demonstrating our collective skills. I have taken on the role of project manager.
