Supporting the community and shopping local is what Made In Chico is all about. They carry products from local vendors through-out the North Valley and what a pleasure it was to work with the owner Jacki to create a new label designs for their new products.
Made In Chico Products are in Green

We’re just enjoying the beautiful sun and spring weather! Below is a pic of the view from our 3rd story design studio.
After creating a logo & website design, McGrath Woodworks asked us if we did business cards, tradeshow banners, and car magnets. The answer is yes! We’ll be placing them in our portfolio shortly.
Getting well underway to a new Blog for LuLus.com!
Every website that we design at Chico Web Design starts as an idea. Based on those ideas and client interactions, we put pen to paper and begin creating website design mockups. Depending on the requirements, a full set of design comps will typically begin with a home page and inner content page. More advanced web sites introduce member sections, payment details, and can go upwards of a dozen or so independent mockups.
Just as a builder draws blueprints, Chico Web Design creates our own set of blueprints for several reasons.
- It’s cheaper and less laborious to make changes in this phase
- It gives the client an idea of what their site could look like without the investment of full development
- Allows for open collaboration between our creative teams and our clients
- Gives us a venue to express our ideas about your business and site
- Sets the tone for the remainder of the pages
When creating a label design for locally owned Made in Chico, our creative team decided that it would be a good idea to print our best design comps for the owner Jacki to review. Printing the labels really allowed Jacki to view the suttle difference between all of the drafts and envision what the final end product could look like. The final label will be placed on a bag for almonds and will ultimately be placed in holiday gift bags.
This picture was taken from my iPhone so it’s a bit low resolution, however you can still see how much fun we had with the design.
I was walking around the office today and decided to take a snap shot of a typical day at Chico Web Design. The first picture is of Ben and Brent deliberating why Internet Explorer 6 has to be such a pain! The second photo is of Brent working on a new website design for Esplanade Office, located here in Chico. Please excuse the resolution, they were taking from my cell phone camera.
