Concepts, Volunteer work

Triphis will sometimes give clients concepts and ideas to help them expand their creative horizon. Not all of these designs are later implemented as public Internet sites. Here you can find illustrations and short descriptions of these concepts.

Also, occasionally Triphis helps nonprofit organizations, schools and even children with their initial steps into the world of the Internet on a voluntary basis. Some of these efforts are showcased here as well.

But they not only found out how the Internet works, they also learned how to research and structure content and work as a 'development team'. Besides, they had plenty of fun - and so did we.
