Webdesign Category Mash Up

In the interest of saving space, we mashed up a few webdesign categories this weekend... We believe they fit together, but even if they don't.... Get used to it (or forever send us angry feedback). Mashed categories will retain an ampersand (&) to signify they are a combination of two categories. So, here they are... Animation and game design combined into: ANIMATION & GAME DESIGN. Art sites and architecture sites get mixed into ART & ARCHITECTURE SITES. Automobile and industrial design sites merge to form: INDUSTRIAL DESIGN & AUTOS. Fashion and photography sites morph into: FASHION, CLOTHES & PHOTOS. Hope you like the trimmer look. And remember, you can always search for just one type of site by using keywords in our search area.... Read more

Digital Egypt

Digital EgyptHad you never been to Egypt proper and you plan to, but haven't had the chance yet... or even if you were turned away at the border (we were!) and you can only get your fix by seeing the Giza pyramids on TV, then this one page wonder of a web site will virtually whisk you away to the big pyramids of Egypt in ancient Egyptian style. Everything you wanted to see in one trip is presented in nicely made QTVR panoramas and photos, framed by hieroglyphics, and it even comes complete with tourists! Only covering one area at this time, Digital Egypt is a great themed design and amateur visual resource for taking a peek at Giza, Egypt.... Read more

Usta Usta Theater

Usta Usta TheaterUsta Usta, or Mouth to Mouth, is the promotional site for a experimental theatre in Poland that puts on a trio of interactive shows that blend video, sound and performance art in a live theater environment. Partly an introduction - and an invitation to get lost in the material - the site is an immersive series of mini interactive Flash pieces that together act as a mysterious patchwork of concepts from the three main theater pieces. An interesting approach, a-la Hi-Res!, that works well for this avant garde theater group.... Read more

Milarepa

Milarepa (Link Down)A compact and window-driven site for the Milarepa Tibetan action fund. The organization urges people to vocalize their opposition to the physical and spiritual occupation of Tibetan culture. The design uses the windows effectively with a minimum of confusion and it's also foolproof to technical disturbances. Great photographs of Tibet and simple color combinations grace every page throughout this pure pop-up site.... Read more

Flugtag Ireland

Flugtag IrelandFun is the name of the game for the funky Flugtag competition, and this site embodies the flavor of the competition through it's functional and slightly futuristic design. We featured another Flugtag site a couple months ago (from San Francisco), and this is the following feature flying in from Ireland. Apparently the organizers have a fancy for fine web design firms.... Read more

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.... Read more

Becoming Human

Becoming HumanEvolution and Human Origins are explored here in an extensive, information-rich online destination for paleoanthropology. The site includes an interactive documentary, educational exhibits, research tools, and the latest news from scientists across the globe. The Web site design itself is in the format of the classic module (or mini-site) first popularized by interactive feature work done for a famous magazine, however much more thoroughly researched and complete....

Great web design that doesn't quite fit into a specific category, or defies definition. Web design miscellany!
