SOFAMADE — About Us

We're SOFAMADE, a web design + development organization based in Arlington, Texas. We believe that building websites and web applications is far more than making catchy designs — it's about effectively communicating business goals. Every project follows our trusted approach, which promotes success since the customer is centrally-focused from beginning to end. We're not only a talented team of designers, developers, and business people, we're hugely passionate about what we do — and it's evident in every project we build.

WEBSITE DESIGN

Every business has a purpose and a promise — a website has the power to fulfill both. By clearly identifying your desired position, goals, and strategy, we'll craft a website that best represents your business. The right visual layout, color, typography, and graphics are used to accurately define your brand and how you're perceived. As huge advocates for web standards, every site we build uses semantic, accessible, and valid XHTML and CSS. Our website services:

  • User-centered website design
  • Site Production (Project Management)
  • Competitor + User Analysis
  • Information Design
  • XHTML + CSS development (SEO)
  • Website Maintenance + Improvements
  • Design/Markup Consultation
  • Custom themes for Shopify

WEB INTERFACE DESIGN

Interface design is very different from website design — it's about a carefully planned user flow. Taking a set of functional requirements and business goals, we find the path of least resistance, then test it on real users. Successful interfaces are the result of exhaustive planning, having a user-centered approach, and fulfilling business needs — so that's what we do. Our philosophy is simple — click, don't think. Our web interface services:

  • User-focused web interface design
  • Site Production (Project Management)
  • Competitor Analysis
  • Information Design
  • Function/Features planning
  • XHTML + CSS development
  • User Testing
  • Ongoing Maintenance + Improvements

WEB APPLICATION DEVELOPMENT

A web application has the promise to achieve business goals and improve processes. Once a clear set of functional requirements has been established and an interface has been designed, we'll rapidly develop your web application using Ruby on Rails (RoR). Because RoR is a framework of pre-built funtionality, is highly scalable, and is remarkably agile, we're able to build applications at a significantly lower cost in a much shorter time period than tradional approaches. Our web application development services:

  • Ruby on Rails web development
  • JavaScript + AJAX programming
  • Database Design
  • Integration with 3rd party systems
  • Collaborative development (SVN)
  • Production setup/deployment
  • Ongoing maintenance + improvements
