Version City

Version CityA new digital design module featuring a fantastic range of styles. No pretense, just great design and digital exploration. These 10+ modules take you on a true visual and interactive adventure: from a storage area of miscelaneous illustrations to a photo essay on Japan, imagination and exploration define the possibilities....

nosubstance

nosubstanceThere's three reasons why we like this site. 1) It explains itself from the get-go. Wow. This simple concept has become the most under-rated idea in the web world. And it's especially welcome to us 'over the hill' surfers. 2) No substance? No problem... No pretense! 3) Just great type and text work from a St.Martins graduate. Simple stuff, not too deep, but with some minor Flash experiments for fun. 4) The homage to NY Knicks great Bernard King. Is that 4? I told you we were getting old.... More

Flight 404

Flight 404All aboard for a cruise through a healthy number of spacial and dynamic Flash modules - strapped into a airline metaphor interface. Finding the way to your seat is half the fun here as the 'inspector'-style interface guides you through over 40 modules to date. There are also a few additional areas, including a user submition database and a couple more that are currently in development. Robert himself has said, in an interview with Extra Lucky Design, that the idea for this site came directly from Joshua Davis's Praystation, but that his goal is to make it even better.... More

Assembler

AssemblerAttaining many of the same interactions and effects as the above sites - but doing it in JavaScript - places this site in a unique category for both Tek difficulty and design! The creator of these visual and colorful DHTML experiments (numbering about 15) throws most people for a loop when they realize his work is handled completely by JavaScript instead of the more commonly tools (Flash). His command of this these formidable scripting challenges is impressive and the resulting experiments appear simple, but are subtely quite powerful.... More

*Wireframe Studio

*Wireframe StudioA promotional 'byproduct' from a design studio in South Africa, Wireframe gives us several extremely tight modular interactions to play with and enjoy. The promise of the site is both experimental and commercial, as this interactive design firm will eventually post it's portfolio, marketing, et. al. on the site, while the experiments will remain in the central strip. To date, there are 6 interactive experiments to enjoy, mostly focused on object control and interactions, including collision detection and more.... More

Praystation

PraystationEvolving ever since we can remember, the Praystation of 1999-2000 is a leader in demonstrating the highest levels of complexity in Flash tek and design interactions. From digital paintbrushes, to Replicating Snowflakes, to Building a Tsunami, Praystation promises the widest and wildest array of Flash Tek experiments online to date - at best guess, more than 50. And as both the artist and the teacher at the same time - Pray delivers eye-fetching content, while more recently he provides code from the experiements for others to learn from - then throw in occational updates of the authors' exploits with a smart interface that leads your through all of the modules and you have one of the diamond superstars of Flash Tek....

digital experiences

digital experiencesDigital Experiences (UK) is a fine representative of the experimental Flash Tek sites, showcasing 'physical' interactions and some quite pleasing control modules for your entertainment. The digital experiences modules focus on some of the more commonly seen effects - spacial, dynamic and repetitive interactions - but also deal with type, physics, some cool 'control' interfaces, and even creates some beautiful pieces with their light and fanciful design elements....

fusionOne

fusionOneA crisp and clean tonal site for an online application that syncs together your personal, business and executive information, calendars and memos into one common ground online regardless of platform or device. The design is utilitarian, with lots of clean space highlighted by software quality icons. The green tonals create a pleasant atmosphere for the site's presence - a pleasant break from mostly blue and grey branded application interfaces.... More

High-end browsers required in this heavily dynamic site.... More

Technology Test Drive

Technology Test DriveDeveloped by Microsoft's MSN in late 1998 this glorified links site grew in weekly stages over four weeks to introduce and help familiarize users with a number of new internet technologies. This site is not live. These simple framed pages based on a consistent design grid provide a weekly editorial content article with advertising links to sites that actively utilize components of advanced internet technology online. This site is offline since this posting.... More


#10 Downing Street

#10 Downing StreetThe Number 10 site is positioned as the Government leading digital communication vehicle. The original design has now changed. The interface is modern, intuitive and future proofed. All content areas are published from a massive relational database and the Governement monitors all activity, work flow processes and content publishing via a custom built web based administration suite. Full interactivity and rich multi-media content is additionally delivered via live webcasting, forums and personalised alert services. The site has been redesigned since this posting.... More

Fuse98Lab

Fuse98LabA popular place for exhibiting new experiments and exploring narratives while examining the powers and usability of DHTML and design. Similar to Remedi, Fuse98Lab is a "virtual laboratory dedicated to exploration", featuring a series of new works by emerging and proven artists each week. A various array of plug-ins and 'nano-recent' browsers are necessary to view all the pieces (which may cause your system to overload). The design is grid-based & very tight, similar to the Fuse98 site as featured in last months webgallery.... More
