About

Struc1.com is owned and operated by Craig Valadez who resides in “Surf City” Huntington Beach CA and you can bet he’s also known as a die hard Angels fan along with his son Joel.

Long before he became a web designer he was a carpenter for more than 15 years and during that time he recognized that both creative processes between the construction and web design are nearly one in the same. With that said, this is the approach Struc1 has taken to educate clients by comparing and relating familiar terms used in both trades in turn helping bridge communications between client and web designer.

The latest in standards compliant design and development are used not to mention accessible and visually stunning websites with interfaces that put your users needs first.

We can also critique, refine, or rebuild your existing website to these same high standards and provide you with detailed visitor statistics. We can integrate a content management system so that you can manage your website content in-house, or we can take care of it all for you.

The tools Craig uses at Struc1:

• 15in MacBook Pro
• Adobe Photoshop CS3
• Adobe Fireworks CS3
• Adobe Illustrator CS3
• Adobe Flash CS3
• Coda by Panic

Last but not least, the question I’m often asked…

Q: How did you come up the name Struc1?

A: Working in the trade as a carpenter it was a material that I used regularly… Struc1 or it’s official name Structural 1 refers to certain specialized strength and stiffness characteristics of plywood panels. It’s fastened with nails or screws onto unframed walls to give them shear strength and also enabling the walls to bear large amounts of weight.
