The Portland Art Dealers Association (PADA) requested a website upgrade. They had a working framework whereby independent art galleries could manage an online art exhibit and show listing, but the whole effect somehow seemed incomplete. The content was there, but the message didn't seem to consistently come together. Here are a few highlights of oyoaha's final solution.
Some of the best concept work (for a post-production company) produced by oyoaha that hasn't been implemented.
Classified reads: "Abandoned concept in need of good home. Potential owners should be clean, mostly sober, and capable of recognizing good design."
This AJAX enabled bit of concept development creates a dynamic wallpaper pattern that responds to user interaction (visits, window re-size, etc.) We named it the "Mood Board" based on the artist being able to instantly communicate her specific fashion-line mood throughout her brand. The concept for the project is this: the brand is the process - not the logo, or the website, or the business card...ad infinitum. As the artist's themes and styles change, she can add the corresponding images (in this case fabric design and imagery) to the website via a simple workflow.
oyoaha continues to enjoy an ongoing relationship with Monsieur t.: brand process, web development, identity, catalogs, and, yes, even a t-shirt design (for which we received some publicity goodness in issue #13 of monster children).
A multidisciplinary, multimedia design project for the successful warehouse art show, Modern Zoo. The project's scope required identity, digital, and print collateral that made its way into an interactive Kiosk, a website, and an interactive CDROM (including packaging). The project was 100% oyoaha from start to finish and involved the use of almost every design program on our computers (including the additional software we developed to pull it off).
