I am proud that the sites I produce comply with W3C's XHTML and CSS standards and are compatible with the accessibility requirements of section 508 amd WAI priority guidelines. I believe that all websites should follow these specifications to improve the user experience.
I also am a firm believer in interactivity. Users can react to what they see immediately on the Internet, get the latest information, giving instant feedback or signing up for a mailing list. I can develop a range of tools to meet your needs, from a simple contact form to a full featured shopping cart system.
I provide polished and useful web sites to small and medium businesses and non-profit organizations. Since Desegno is a one person firm, there is no large overhead, and I can work within a reasonable budget.
You have a business, or a great idea for a new business. You want people to know about your business, then having website may be a good thing. But not all business will automatically benefit from having a website. I can consult with you on how the web may (or may not) help your business. I only take a project when I believe it will truly benefit your business.
I believe in a personal approach in customer service. I will give you the hands-on training and clear instruction on how to update your website. Your business has to adjust as it grows, why not your website?
A few questions to consider before building your websites:
A native of Japan, my specialty is creating websites in both Japanese and English. I also provide translation and layout services for a reasonable budget.

But enough jargon.

I believe in using open source technology. If I use open source software, I give credit where credit is due, and submit my problem/solution to its community forum.
I am especially proud that I am an active contributer in WordPress community as a theme designer and developer.
Other open source technology that I embrace: Joomla, Drupal, phpBB, MediaWiki, ZenCart and most php/mysql based web projects.
Hisui Sugiura (1876 - 1965) was a commercial artist/designer in late 19th century to during the war time in Japan.
