Designed with Richard Smith / Engage, in collabiration with Mode. Technical development by LingoBee.

After forming a partnership in 1994 and quickly developed a reputation as an architect with an artists sensibility and vision. David Adjaye is now recognised as one of the leading architects of his generation in the UK.

Engage brought me into this project to take the branding created by Mode and develop a website accordingly. Mode had a clear idea of how they envisaged the website looking, however needed help with the navigation system, multiple levels of information, and animation elements.

Although a relatively simple looking website, a lot of time & thought has been put into polishing the small details on this project.

From the left navigation through to the subtle background grid & panel system that is revealed as you move your mouse through each page: Each element of the site contributes to an elegantly detailed solution.

This was quite a demanding project as it needed a fast turnaround and although it's quite a small site, it's very much a bespoke design with which I had to make sure Adjaye Associates, Engage, Mode, and LingoBee were all happy.
