  3. Electronest Aggregated & Electronic Presence

    September 16, 2008

    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.

  7. Martino Gamper and PlatformTwo - quick re-invigoration for websites

    January 29, 2008

    One for Martino Gamper website based on a custom wordpress, and the blog of PlatformTwo at RCA design department.

    The first re-invigoration for GamperMartino.com is about clearing the access to project based categories and archives, and adding a third column on the right to display more common things he can come accross. The column auto adjust automatically in height, is simple but yet effective, and allow one huge screens to display more projects at once.

    The PlatformTwo re-invigoration is based on a some organisational and educational changes inside the platform, the catch pharse not being anymore ‘design activism’, but ‘design communalism’ which aim is now to focus on design practices which involve or take place within communities. Therefore the platform needed a re-arrangement of the original design to bring on top a few new projects they are working on.
    Yesterday, I was at the RCA Design department ‘work in progress show’ - and the results are already quite interesting.

  14. Beautifully simple: Maureen Paley website and information’s layers

    November 04, 2005

    maureenpaleycom1.png

    A re-interpretation of the traditionnal tree representation by Damien Poulain and I - this design pushed the tree listing representation a bit further, adding simple yet effective visual enhancement of information’s layers and sub menues.

    The minimalism and apparent classical simplicity trough the choice of colors and typography is counter balanced by the menu elements coming on top when hovered.

  17. Hollybush Gardens Website

    October 20, 2005

    Åbäke and I designed a simple and effective website for the east london gallery Hollybush Gardens based on the printed identity Åbäke designed for them. The idea was to make the geo location of the gallery as obviously as possible; they also can access the archives and the presentation of artists, current exhibition and what’s planned for the forthcoming exhibitions.

  18. Macondo - conceptual web design

    August 12, 2005

    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

  19. Maison Martin Margiela - first electronic presence

    November 01, 2004

    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).

  20. Kitsuné website

    October 20, 2004

    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.
