Create and share color themes with kuler
18/01/2007 by admin.
by Maxine Schur
The only color I don’t have is navy brown. —Yogi Berra
What do a fashionista, new apartment dweller, graphic designer, and website developer have in common? They can all use kuler, the free web-hosted application available from Adobe Labs.
With kuler, developed by the Emerging Markets & Technologies team (EM&T) at Adobe, anyone can create harmonious color themes of two to five colors based on scientific color formulas or use an interactive color wheel to create their own. The color themes can be created in RGB, CMYK, and LAB color spaces and can be represented as hexadecimal values for use on the web.

Site by Heiwa Alpha Inc. and Ryukyu Inc. and Granmuse
We’re staying in Japan as we enter this next site for a Tokyo-based animation studio. This virtual world captures the user’s attention immediately and combines brilliant visuals with complementary sound effects and ambient music, thus creating the perfect atmosphere for this type of site.
Click the moving city to enter another impressive 3D building, packed with numerous superb animations.
While this site is available only in Japanese, the quality of the animations leaves the visitor in no doubt of the stature of a company that can produce such work.
Once you have visited this website, you won’t forget it.

UNIQLO
18/01/2007 by admin.
Site by tha ltd
I find the work coming out of Asia to be the most exciting on the web, with Japan and South Korea leading the way. This site from Yugo Nakamura’s company, tha ltd, is a prime example. It uses progressive levels of scripting and forward thinking to showcase a like-minded company in an innovative way.
Check out Experience Uniqlo Explorer for the most experimental part of the site and notice how a grid is built out of the clothes collection of this company. Now click one of the thumbnails and notice that the high-resolution image of that particular item is now visible. Click that item again to return to the grid and notice how the grid now forms the visual appearance of the clothing item you just viewed, built with thumbnails of the clothing line in matching colors.
This is advanced and intelligent design — maybe too advanced for some — but this type of creative thinking and experimental work has fuelled many web designers’ imaginations and earned Nakamura a place in web design history.
