A lot of first generation Web design shops will tell you they are on the cutting edge of the digital revolution although some are still designing in yesteryear. In fact, many firms are doing business in a ‘bubble’ utilizing archaic technologies. While the Dawn-of-a-New Age media hype has died down we are clearly in the second generation of this revolutionizing medium.


colossalFIRM won’t shut up about what is new and exciting in our business. We diligently stay current with the latest breakthroughs in technologies like standards-based Web design, XHTML/CSS design, blogging, and content syndication. - Check out 10 Benefits of Standards-based Web Design and How It Increases ROI.


Our design experience provides a solid return on your investment.
Sure – we rode the first generation wave – (we’ve been keeping clients happy since 1995) but not all design shops have kept pace with second generation thinking.

We know how users react to visual stimulation. We know how aesthetics affect emotions, feelings, and drive usability factors. Perhaps more importantly, we apply our knowledge in a variety of ways so that your brand looks, feels and functions the way it MUST to achieve your business goals.


Today’s visual communication mediums have come a long way in a short time and show no signs of slowing down. Fortunately, new media is our job. We love it, we understand it, and we do our homework. Always. Which means our clients can move forward confidently, and embrace emerging media and digital technologies knowing that they have an authoritative partner to guide them in this that reaps multiple – if not HUGE – rewards!
