Selected Works














Adidas Skateboarding

Services: Art Direction, Interactive Design, Flash Animation and Programming
Date: Winter 2007/2008
Website: http://www.adidasskateboarding.com

We were very lucky to have met the people behind the adidas skateboarding brand this fall at Juice design. It led to us developing a hyper cross related, semi HD video driven, funk filled site for the dopest shoe company of all time. Having worked on several leading skate shoes sites, I have to say this is my favorite. That may be due to OK leading all the design.

When our inspirational pals at Hybrid called up about needing some help on a project for Nike, we jumped at the chance to help out. We developed several sections of the site using Flash to complement Hybrids extra tight HTML and design skills.
