Universal Music Group: Redesigning a UI/UX Concept

Universal Music Group: Redesigning a UI/UX Concept

We are checking out this UI/UX concept by Alexsander Barhøn of the current Universal Music Group site. First of all, I love the UI approach with what he calls it the Acrylic Concept where you will be welcomed with a soft-blurred shapes mixed into sections like events, music, videos and more. I also really enjoyed his interaction design across the project where the transitions are kept rather pretty minimal and smooth as well. Overall, really cool concept! I wish we all had this creative freedom when designing large scaled projects, there is always room for improvements.

Apply Now for SXSW 2019 Place By Design Competition

SPACEBUSTER: We Like America- 2018 SXSW Place by Design Finalist

The built environment and design of our shared spaces have a profound influence on our daily lives. In the public realm, design-based solutions can produce a wide range of outcomes impacting areas as diverse as health, behavior, social interaction, creativity and civic engagement.

The SXSW Place by Design Competition provides a platform for artists, architects, designers, and urbanists at all levels to present their scalable solutions for improving our shared landscape (including public art, urban interventions, digital technologies, and architecture).

The selected finalists will be invited to present at SXSW 2019. Each designer or team will present their work in a fast-paced pitch competition and participate in a Q&A session with the judges, who ultimately determine the winner. Read about last year’s winning project Adressaparken here.

The competition will take place during the Design Track at SXSW 2019.

Who Should Apply

The Place by Design competition is open to all types of design work that rethinks, enhances, or transforms public space, including but not limited to emerging technologies, urban interventions, public art, and architecture.

Eligibility

Work will be judged in part by its impact on the design problem it set out to solve, therefore conceptual submissions and projects in planning are not eligible for inclusion at this time. Creative collaborations and work using data, media, emerging technologies, and the arts are encouraged to apply. No intervention is too small, but ultimately we are seeking original, ingenious ideas that are site-specific yet can scale, and will inspire other creatives, designers and urbanists to improve their own surroundings.

Applications Close: Friday, November 9, 2018 at 11:59pm PT

Drone Photography: Aerial Facades

Drone Photography: Aerial Facades

I don’t know if you are familiar to the Instagram hashtag: #StraightFacades, it’s a cool hashtag where users would take pictures of facades of buildings. Mostly all about architecture or even cityscape. But Camilo Monzón Navas took a different and unique direction as he called it: #AerialFacades. Shot mostly on a drone (Mavic Pro), you get to discover another angle and showcase really interesting results. Check it out!

UI/UX: Redesigning a new look Wikipedia/Fandom

As we are currently playing with inspiration and concepts of the new ABDZ site and part of the process is to revisit what we love and hate from the current design. Also what can be improved in terms of reader experience as well, the blog has been alive for more than a decade now. We are going on the blog every single day but we have to remind ourselves not to build any bad habits. We are taking a look at the work of Piotr Kaźmierczak and Prowling Wolves. They are both based in Poznań, Poland and their task was to create a new look and feel for Wikipedias article based on Fandom colour scheme. Let’s check it out!

Who’s Driving Tokyo Photography Series

Who’s Driving Tokyo Photography Series

We have featured the work of Oleg Tolstoy before on ABDZ with the “The Tourist Trap” Series. Now he is back with a photography series entitled: Who’s Driving Tokyo from one of my favourite places on Earth. This series has been featured on many outlets and now here on Abduzeedo. I love the sight of a unique and silent world of the Japanese taxi drivers, it’s an interesting glimpse at their daily life.

I soon discovered that this aloofness is not just personal, but professional: drivers rated ‘ y ūryō untensha ’ – excellent driver – have their own stands at major stations and special markings on their cabs. As people, we naturally crave connection, but even in this tiny enclosed space, the line between driver and passenger persists. I was intrigued by these professionals who spend most of their days in silence, despite often being sat less than a metre from another human being
