Innovative display of work from Jean Malek
3 Comments | Posted by Chris Wales in Advertising, Flash, Photography, Website
Jean Malek’s website shows that great visual impact doesn’t have to be at the expense of simple usability. In fact I think the useability vs design debate is really a bit old hat now, they should just go hand in hand. (Designers and developers unite, it’s a love in!) Anyway, we really like the way they collide on this site. It’s a striking way for him to display his work and the way the menu icon follows your cursor round the screen means you never get lost.
There is also the thoughtful inclusion of quick links to get directly to the previous/next piece of work. Very nice…

I see how it interferes with the purity of his work but for me it allows the maximum expression without sacrificing the usability. we often see these great sites that we can’t navigate round, I feel it’s a fairly non intrusive compromise.

sweet way of showcasing work that you can see
I’m not sure about the stalking cursor function but the site is ridiculously nice, I love the combination of very small and neat triangular thumbnails with the large fullscreen images. Nice find Chris!
