Website Craft

The lovely thing above constructed by Cookie.

One thing is I hate about web designs is that generally, they all look like web designs. In the same way I was disappointed all Matthew Williamson's inspiration appears to come from fashion, it often seems as though all web designers inspiration comes from web designs.

Poke are one company that tend to avoid this and their latest site Get On Board is a shining example of beautiful craft that happens to be on a website. Sure it's a brilliant idea and a great cause, but the craft that's gone into little things like buttons is lovely. And it's managed to look nice and good and hand made without looking twee and shit and like it was done by Swampy.

Just look at the picture / illustration / graphic above. Gorgeous isn't it? And that's what this week is all about.

I read his blog and I'm interested in a lot of the things Cookie produces. I think that (above) is my favourite thing I have seen him do, beautiful idea.
