As the mercury reached record levels in Philadelphia, Tactile Design Group was hard at work putting the finishing touches on two projects. Now as we get a slight break from the heat and humidity, TDG is delighted to announce the launch of two new web sites for two local synagogues. Both sites feature content management systems customized by TDG and designs by our amazing partner organizations.

Temple Beth Zion-Beth Israel is a dynamic community located in the heart of Rittenhouse Square in downtown Philadelphia. For their new site they wanted to keep their existing design, but expand it to include new features such as an event calendar, photo and video galleries, online donation forms, a wikipedia-like dictionary, and a secure section with a member directory and discussion forums. Little Red Fish put a fresh spin on their original site design, and Tactile Design Group implemented the design in a secure and flexible system that will support the congregation’s marketing, communications and community building needs for years to come.

Congregation Kol Ami is a small, intimate community located in Elkins Park, just north of Philadelphia. For their new web site they wanted a brand new design that reflected the vibrancy of their members, coupled with comprehensive administrative tools that let them update the site entirely on their own. To achieve this goal Tactile Design Group partnered with our colleagues and neighbors at Masters Group Design. MGD provided the design and managed the project while Tactile Design Group built the framework that resulted in a robust, multi-layered and stunning new web site.

Even a record breaking heat wave can’t slow us down. We have even more projects in the pipeline right now that we can’t wait to show you, but you’ll just have to be patient and wait for their big debuts!
