For this project, they're separate installs (the blog is just in the /blog/ subdirectory). There's a trade-off in more maintenance to keep them both up-to-date, but the upside is that it's super easy to maintain different looks/themes, keep the databases independent of each other, and develop easily both sites without worry of affecting or mistakenly removing data. @Everyone: Thanks for all the great comments! — really appreciate all the feedback.

Quick design question: As a fellow WordPress user, I am always struggling with having a blog be a separate install or keep it as part of the main site. Your blog, here, is it part of your new site's build? Why, or why not? Thanks. And again, looks awesome. Also, love that you’re using the 960.gs — I’m a big fan.

Looks Good! The wire-like texture in the background is a nice detail. I imagine prospective clients will be impressed as well. Very professional and still BROWN. Looks Good!
