Brain Aided™ Design is proud to announce it has signed up with CoCo2 to help offset the Carbon Emissions generated by the server that brainaideddesign.com is hosted on.

CoCo2 will use the money donated by Brain Aided™ Design to fund various projects, from purchasing carbon offsets to offset the impact of registered websites (including brainaideddesign.com) on the environment, to planting trees in the UK and supplying energy efficient lighting to low income villagers in South Africa amongst other things.

According to CoCo2 “Carbon Offsetting is a method by which you can minimise your impact on the environment. For every ton of CO2 your activities produce you can reduce somebody else’s activities by the same amount.

For example, if the electricity generated that your website consumes is equivelant to 1 ton of CO2 emmitted per year then we could plant trees that take 1 ton of carbon out of the atmosphere.”

To make your website carbon neutral and/or to list your site in the CoCo2 directory please visit CoCo2.org.

Brain Aided™ Design, in collaboration with Kahuna Design and Warwick Promotions has recently completed a website for the educational attraction, Old MacDonald’s Farm.

The development and design process began in April 2007 as has been on going over the last 3 months. Aimed to appeal to children along with parents it features bright, colourful graphics and fun features for kids to interact with such as downloadable activities.

The most challenging aspect of the website was the interactive map of the farm. Featuring a navigation tool with scrolling and zoom facilities, alongside interactive buttons with sound FX and educational information overlays for the animals and farm activities.

Brain Aided™ Design is currently featured on the website for type foundry Underware. Underware are a quality type foundry based in Holland and run by three chaps called Akiem Helmling, Bas Jacobs and Sami Kortemäki.

This website uses the beautiful Underware typeface Bello, along with their screen font Unibody.
