Contemporary Web Design

alfcen web design specializes in the construction of websites for small to medium size companies. Unlike many service providers do, I do not claim to be the best in the market nor do I top in all fields. However, if you are in need of a simple but modern, comprehensive, easy-to-navigate web site for your business, public outreaches or academic purposes I will be able to assist.

Inquiries about web sites with illegal contents, such as adult, violence, racial and criminal, as well as sensitive contents such as religious, political, military, legal and medical will be rejected in the first place.

My main area of my web design expertise is in electronics, optics, astronomy, general science, accommodation, tourism and environmental issues. I may therefore have a strong understanding of the technical aspects and applications of the products you sell, while I am quite capable of working independently with a minimum set of instructions whilst fully honoring my clients' wishes.

Friendly and relaxed project correspondence by email - no travel expenses, no extra time for meetings. You can therefore expect a high level of responsiveness and fast turn-around, even on weekends and holidays.

More or less for hobby, I am also developing astronomy software mainly for Pocket PCs:

Please feel welcome to enjoy some "window shopping".

I've looked at your site and it is very good. My wife is a textile artist interested in Asian textiles and prints, As a designer, she thinks the layout is easy to read and 'open' so the eye is not tired in any section. I like the way you always make your pages printable and the flash banners across the top of most pages.

Mir fällt immer wieder auf, dass nicht nur fachliches erbracht wird, sondern zwischendurch immer mal wieder einen "Gruß zur Entspannung", der sich wiederfindet in Hinweisen auf Land, Umgebung, Leute. Das Ganze ist sehr locker und nicht streng sachlich nüchtern.

The designer has done a wonderful job on our club web site. The design is modern, clean and easy to navigate. Additionally, he also researched and found new and interesting content useful to our club membership. He is extremely responsive to any updates we request, posting changes within hours (sometimes minutes!) of contact. Highly recommended.

We needed a Website to advertise our condo in Hawaii for rent. The designer came up with the initial design and layout which was consequently iteratively customized. He was very responsive taking customer inputs and provided detailed design improvements based on his own initiative. He added very professional features (e.g. printable pages, Map references, cross-references, photo gallery, visual effects, etc) to finalize this great website in both English and Japanese which is easy to navigate and pleasing to the eyes. We can only highly recommend alfcen's Web service.
