Audi-TT

Audi-TTThe culmination of websites that are supporting the launch of the Audi-TT Coupe. The site demonstrates a great grid-based web design. Multiple medias like streaming video, DHTML and integrated audio provide visitors with an opportunity to peruse through a rich description of the creative paths taken in the construction of this car. The structured nature of the metagrid boxes couples control and flexibility and an elaborately expanding interface control utilizes pictoral navigation to maintain a theme of beauty & exploration. All this while light design contrasts highlight the subtle silver tones and sophisticated beauty of the Coupe.... Read more

Clase-a

Clase-aClase-A was developed for advertising the Mercedes - Benz A Class in 1997. 15 days after releasing the web site the car had it's own technical bugs. "The client gave us total freedom" Since the year of it's design the site has been regaled as a beautiful product despite the delivery extention on the car. All graphics were done using Freehand, Photoshop and After Effects.... Read more


Core 77

Core 77The old school industrial design magazine from the Pratt Design School in NYC. Core was changed in 1999, but still features articles and student projects with a clean delivery. Designed at Pratt University in NYC, originally by industrial design students, this site was a portal for showcasing student works and exhibits. Core77 is now (Nov.2000) more focused on promoting web design and ID together as a more universal graphic design portal and resource, but it has lost much of the interesting interface design that first made it a standout project....

Flymo

FlymoThe British invention of the hovercraft was the inspiration for Swedish lawnmower inventor Karl Dahlman to develop a flying lawnmower and this site presents the product line with a lean but bold design impact. This is a well branded, brightly colored and amusing site that remains clean and clutter free, but sprinkled with demonstrative gif builds. An overall appealling product design and impressive online delivery of it's capabilities and range of models.... Read more

Fuse : Industrial Design

Fuse : Industrial DesignThis small site for a hybrid industrial and product design company features some nice gratuitous 3-D Flash movement and good overall cohesion and 'sense of space'. The highlight of this very crisp design is the green, living, modular and sometimes gooey nav system found positioned at the bottom left which guides you through the six basic pages of the site....

ideo

ideoThis large industrial design firm's site is an excellent example of Swiss design methodologies. Strong linear Swiss grid techniques lend support to this visual structure while the contrast of the bright yellows and blues help highlight the products. Ideo enlisted the excellent web talents of Metadesign to create their website, which garnered several web design accolades and awards for their innovative and appropriate design solution....

Iomega

IomegaIomega's site employs a 'templated' design concept of bold lines and tonal balance that differentiates a range of products while it still maintains unity under a single brand. Their heavily framed section dividers invoke the same design used in the package and identity design on their data storage products and equipment. This site has since been redesigned.... Read more


Maybach Manufaktur

Maybach ManufakturHeralded as one of the world's most luxurious sedans, Maybach Manufaktur is a lineage of traditional craftsman who create an exclusive class of hand-finished saloon style automobile. From bumper to bumper, interior to exterior, the Maybach sedan exudes beauty, refinement and sophistication. Therefore it only makes sense that their online presence is in a class far above and beyond any other automotive web sites. On their site, you can bask in the the rich heritage dating back to the late 1890's and follow the history of the Maybach founders to the present day, as a part of DaimlerChrysler Works.

Mazda6

Much like the Adidas a3 campaign, (linked here a few weeks ago) this Mazda6 campaign tries to take it to that next level of adding dimention and "shazamm" to a Flash site. Not sure if it shazamm'd me, but it's always nice touch to have some depth to a page.... Read more

Porter Teleo

Porter TeleoHummingbirds, asymmetrical berries and mathematical rain are just a few of designs you'll find in this beautiful site for a custom wallpaper design studio. Why frame your art when you can have it as a repeating pattern all over your walls? Porter Teleo puts the art back into wallpaper by using very minimal concepts - a type of Japanese sensibility - and abstract shapes incorporated into harmonious color schemes. And the site, designed by Shawn Sanem Art & Design, brings out all the beauty of the art inside by allowing it to take center stage. It's a perfect harmony of art, product and online visibility vehicle.... Read more

Saab

SaabSaab A clean and picturesque place for cruising through the simplicity of Saab's automotive wonders. Saab is a delicate and finely balanced corporate site. The light balance and subtle shades of colors hints at elegance and craftmanship while the precisely positioned shots and close-ups speak more to the underlying power of engineering coming from the twofold craftsmen of jet planes and automobiles. Overall, a simple and classic site that also provides multiple language support without sacrificing design. The site was redesigned recently, but it did not loose any of it's beauty and even gained some usability features in the process.... Read more
