Seen advertising agency's website

By Marie Estaire


This mainly green and beige company website first catches the eye with its bold font and funny animated character, then with its concept of a store, where 3D images of goods that come live on loading and go still as you hover over them can be added to the “checkout”. There are also tiny objects you can drag around the page.

All around us* brand’s website

By Siarhei Plashchynski


Siarhei Plashchynski designed a trendy b/w page for a clothing brand featuring a custom cursor and a huge typography piece that moves below animated photos. Each photo leads to a new page with a detailed description and more hi-res photos of a product. All along the way, typography acts as one of the main characters interlaced in the gridded canvas.

1st place winner

Heliotropy

by Studio CRONICA


A charged-up website lit by a yellow animated beam explores two stories of Heliotropy’s founders. Each of the personal pages appears brimmed with draggable text, photos, videos, handwritten notes, naive illustrations, and even embedded music balanced with a mono-colored background and smooth scroll.

Hayal & Hakikat

by Marina Meyer


The website tells a poignant story of Turkish convicts who had to be photographed with their palms on the show so the Sultan could decide whether they would live or die. As you scroll down the page, multiple centuries-old photos of people appear, flickering as if the photoshoot is still going on. The flow is sometimes interrupted by intertitles explaining one thing or another.
