We designed and developed our first website in 2005 and our first WordPress site in 2008. Since then, we’ve worked with a multitude of inspiring, passionate, driven clients on some pretty cool websites. While we can’t include everything in our primary portfolio, this supplemental web design collection features a small but diverse selection of our past website design and WordPress development projects that we think deserve some extra love and attention.
In early 2009, Bourn Creative transitioned all of our website development to the open source WordPress platform, designing and developing custom themes, as well as customizing commercial themes. In 2013, we became co-organizers of the Sacramento WordPress meetup, helping to grow the group to almost 900 members. In 2015, we were instrumental in bringing the inaugural Sacramento WordCamp to life, with 19 speakers, 21 sponsors, and 180 attendees.
With one in four websites now powered by WordPress — yes, WordPress powers 25% of all websites on the internet — Bourn Creative now builds custom WordPress publishing platforms for successful entrepreneurs, small to medium sized businesses, bloggers, publishers, and corporate entities.
Our web design services include:
- Strategic consulting

One of the best things about WordPress is its flexibility and extensibility. We work closely with our clients to identify problems, architect strategic solutions, and create the final product. Often that means integrating custom features and third-party plugins or applications that extend the functionality of the WordPress software. Some of these features include:
- E-commerce capabilities
- Job boards
- Membership site features
- Book reviews and book libraries
- Custom mapping features
- Learning management systems
