Collaborating with MANOVERBOARD was more like play than work—something I haven't experienced with other designers and technology firms. Andrew Boardman transformed my torrent of words into a visual experience that evoked precisely the physical and emotional responses I hoped for. Put simply: This is a man you can trust with your dreams; he has integrity, double-checks his assumptions, communicates clearly and often, and makes himself accessible without letting you exploit him. He thinks deeply and laughs a lot. What more could you ask?

If you're looking for a smarter way to attract customers and clients, MANOVERBOARD can help.

Every production is built from scratch. No cookie-cutters. No shake and bake. And no crazy nonsense. Just powerful visual designs and interfaces, a practical technical approach, and clear thinking.

Our portfolio will give you the big picture but following are our key services.

Website Design and Redesign

From the very start, we make sure that every website is a solid aesthetic and financial investment. With a focus on usability, our sites make it easy for your visitors to get where they want both quickly and easily. Websites are built to grow over time so that changes, updates, and modifications come easily. MANOVERBOARD has been an early proponent of Web standards, which saves money, time, and sweat because sites are built right the first time. All of our sites are built to be accessible to everybody. We've designed sites and interfaces for Generation Investment Management, MIT, HeartShare Human Services of New York and many, many others.

Content Management and E-Commerce

For those that need to regularly publish and update website content or sell products and services online, MANOVERBOARD provides top-notch design and development. For content management, we are expert at integrating Movable Type, a powerful online publishing tool. With Movable Type, administrators have the ability to post, archive, and deliver many types of content to their sites, including news, events, blog entries, newsletters, and RSS feeds. E-commerce solutions are built around the specific needs of a client's business and expectations for growth.

Identity Design and Logos

Nearly every identity we design is continual use. To ensure that staying power, we ask strategic questions about your business, its marketing activities, and audiences to ensure that your identity communicates succinctly, thoughtfully, and effectively. We study your ideas, vision, and organization's history. After initial concepts are presented, every aspect of the identity is fine-tuned right down to the last detail. We have created identities for Acumen Fund, Stonewater Control Systems, and many others.

Stationery, Brochures and Reports

Our stationery systems are crafted to connect with your customers and constituents. We excel at creating annual and business reports that showcase a range of visual information and must quickly and easily communicate organization's findings, funding, and future. We create informative brochures that garner respect and build credibility.
