Today we published 2 new pages on the Electronest website:
Electronest Aggregated and Electronic Presence.
Both are resulting from frustration; Electronest Aggregated allow visitors to have a more global perception of our different website (there’s still tons of work to be done to make the experience smoother). Electronic Presence will be used as a ressource page on the concept of Electronic Presence.

what vs. how (tecznotes)
nice writing about design process at stamen. It is nice to see Pierre and I, we are actually quite right with all the thoughts we are giving about ElectroNest and how to manage the company/work/life – it’s all about utopia! :)

internet usage statistics origami – data visualization & visual design – information aesthetics
a very nice tangible visualisation of internet traffic and flows; it reminded me the logo electronest designed for my own electronic presence on http://www.jeromerigaud.com

Declutter Your Desk how to make space on your desk – everything is hidden in the shade, still accessible but not messing all around (tags: ***** desktop hardware ideas lifehack organization productivity)
The Elements of Typographic Style Applied to the Web – a practical guide to web typography I quite liked the book of Robert Bringhurst – now, it seems like there is a nice web equivalent with the very specific issues of typography on screen (lower resolution, less control) (tags: screen typography webdesign ***** design display)
Creating a Color Scheme some explanations and insights about the color parameters and values I used to manipulate in picture editing software without knowing what it meant exactly (degreee, etc.) (tags: color howto tutorial photoshop hue degree)
How To: Separate WordPress Comments and Trackbacks WordPress with a bit of subtlety: separating comments and trackbacks (tags: wordpress hack code custom)
Koyaanisqatsi – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia “It’s not that we use technology, we live technology” – amazing and brilliant movie. it is the first of a trilogy (tags: film inspiration slow_motion technology nature society explosion)
CommentPress an amazing plugin that let’s you comment posts on a per paragraph basis; it brings feelings somehow of taking notes with a pen in the margins of a real book. (tags: wordpress comment plugin textuality discussion)

The conceptual electronic presence of the Macondo café on Hoxton Square (London), this was the first website design of the Macondo which lasted for quite some time from August 2005 to November 2007.
The evolving color of the background was setting the stage along with a post mixed record of the ambient sound – giving a sort of strange pre-impression of being at the café. The website was purely informative: it had only text and no seductive pictures, since the idea was for people to be there and not in front of a computer screen.
They since moved off of this identity track Daniel Mair and I designed.
the background color used a 10×10 gif animation

My first brief as a designer was quite special: a website to communicate a brand which was not communicating much, even the collection were kept away from online display, letting out just enough of the brand’s spirit…
This website was a mimic of a directory tree file listing (a default apache feature); with a bit of advanced typography and a lot of retenue. Since then, the website has been updated, and changed – but the initial concept remained: displaying the underlying structure of what a website is – intricated piles of folders and files, images and documents.
This mimic was based on the anti-chambre website i have been running for sometimes and which was hosting most of my projects at that time. The aesthetic of anti-chambre was very similar to the one Maison Martin Margiela developped for some years, with its structure being shown some times but not all the time, a semi transparent display of the inner arcane and structure, deconstructed and reconstructed at some point, somewhere but not everywhere at the same time (sounds like weird hu? i like the idea a lot but it’s quite hard to describe).

Above, this is an intermediate version of the Kitsuné website presented over the new one; the very first version was an adaption of the former one but included a CMS (Content Management System) for them to update more easily their content and products on the website. Each of Kitsuné sections (music, clothes, collaborations, …) had its own popup. In a later version, Åbäke and I switched the appearance of the Kitsuné Therese section to black – the kitsune noir.
