Moira Johnson Consulting November 24, 2003

Axionic is terrific! They have designed 6 incredibly successful, easy-to-use websites for us. We have received nothing but positive comments. Not only are the websites imaginative and effective but extremely easy to navigate, and Mark and Erik offer great support when we need them! We have recommended Axionic to a number of colleagues and they are all very satisfied - the best possible compliment.

Sobey Art Foundation September 11th, 2003 Re: Axionic a digital media studio

To Whom It May Concern:

Earlier this year the organizers of the Sobey Art Award enlisted the services of Erik Hagborg and Mark Stephenson of Axionic a digital media studio, to design and implement a web site devoted to the award. We were looking to create a site that would serve multiple functions. The end result located at www. sobeyartaward. ca is a stellar example of web-site design it is smart, sophisticated and easy to navigate.

The strategy used by the Axionic team in building the site was exemplary, far exceeding the expectations of the Sobey Art Award partners, which include Sobey Art Foundation, Empire Company Ltd and the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia. One of the key issues was to have a structure to which elements could be added, changed and developed without compromising the visual identity of the Award or the design of the site. Again, this was achieved and under a very tight deadline.

We certainly look forward to an ongoing working relationship with Hagborg and Stephenson and wish them all the best with Axionic.

Yours very sincerely,

Svava Juliusson, Coordinator Sobey Art Award www. sobeyartaward. com

ipMonitor

I wanted to tell you how pleased I am with the site. The layout is quick to navigate and every page has some element that makes it interesting. Other people like it too, we have already received quite a few compliments.

Structurally the site is great. Everyone here was impressed with the layout and code. For me, it was very easy to make small changes prior to going live. Best of all we'll be able to keep the site fresh and dynamic with little work.

Working with Axionic has been a great experience, not only did you deliver within a couple of days of the deadline, the end result is better in every way than what we expected going into the project.

The system you have for developing websites definitely produces results. I've been through website development a few times and without a doubt working with Axionic was by far the most rewarding and productive experience.

I look forward to a long relationship!

Cheers!
