Studio/artist Exploration

I came across a studio of French artists, graphic designers, and web designers that were rated on the Top 10 flash website designs for 2009 on ebizMBA. The website that they use as their online portfolio is so original and good looking, creaktif. It is trendy, innovative and its ease of use is fantastic.
The website is very easy to use. They use a combination of vector graphics and bitmap graphics to create interest and depth. The website offers a view to all the different art forms they have worked in. They have websites, print work, design in 3d, street art, and movies. I love how modern it is, but it is not so over done that you can not figure out how to use it.

Some of the other work I enjoyed was a website that allows people to post their pictures from around the world for others to enjoy. This website is sleek and quite simple. It simplicity allows the pictures to be the focal point. Let's Take a Picture shares the information about the picture, such as the location of the site, the camera that was used and other details about the picture. The pictures are beautiful, and the website makes sure that the pictures are the center piece. The navigation is easy to use. It is also customizable, the user can change the colors. The website is clean, easy to use, modern and really puts emphasis on the pictures. I think it is really nice.

Another site that I really liked was a2Studio. Right now, it seems to be a template or is yet to be filled with actual content. Again, just as the others it is very easy to use. What is eye catching is the action of moving from page to page. It is innovative and unique. Though, the site offers something I have never seen before, they do not lose the practical aspects of easy navigation. The graphics are interesting, crisp and very nice to look at. They used a combination of photographs and bits of vector graphics, like the silhouettes. None of it is overdone, it is creative and practical.
I really like there work, it is very creative.
