More and more clients are approaching Pure Design to create mobile friendly versions of their website. Â No, not iPhone Apps, not websites that just appear on mobile devices, but websites that are designed to perform and be accessible on iPhones, iPads, Blackberrys… you name it.
Take a look here using a PC or Mac: www.tcpf.com – this website was designed by us and the client requested a mobile version.
Now take a look at: www.tcpf.com on a mobile device – this will automatically redirect you to a mobile version of the site. For PC users, you can take a peek at it by going to: http://www.towncountrypropertyfrance.com/mobile/ – and narrow your browser window to as narrow as it will go to create the mobile device effect.
