Wordpress Design Brief
We need a Wordpress design for a company that strategizes on and produces materials for employee communications. Improving employee communications at all levels of an organization can help improve overall company performance and results. The site needs to look very clean and professional; we're not afraid of white space. We like the functionality that Wordpress provides; however, we only want one "true" blog page; the other pages should give the impression of a more "static" web site - particularly the home page. I have a logo that I can provide.
I have added these comments to the discussion page:
Great question - thank you for asking it. I’ve done more research
I like the very clean and monochromatic looks to many of these. I don’t have to have monochromatic, but I do like minimal colors. Simple, clean, organized. The home page should “fit” almost entirely without scrolling. I do like fat footers that you can scroll down to. I don’t want a colored background, but any that I’ve chosen with colored backgrounds could be switched to a white background.

These last two are more corporate sites. The first one is from a well-respected consultant in my area who does a lot of what I do. And I think Deloitte does a nice job with their site. So, I want to marry the look I like with getting the content job done.

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: I've had some other things to attend to, so I've not provided the feedback I should have to those who have submitted. I'd like to provide an opportunity for others to submit and to interact with those who have already submitted. Thanks!

Requirements
Must have
- Need an impactful home page. There should be a "blog" page; contact us; services; about. For starters, at least. I want fonts to be very readable - that is, either quite dark gray or black.
Nice to have
- I am loathe to include a picture of myself, but I do want some images that say, "professional" and "expert" in communications.
Should not have
- I don't want a hits counter :) (I know no one would do that!).
