Proportion

I chose to do a work from Nakamura's second site. Nakamura’s linear time flow graphic is smooth and graceful, and the user can follow through the history of Mono Crafts and Nakumura, and though still under construction, the idea allows for continues updating, meaning that the site and the time line is always progressing.

By moving the mouse the user can interact by moving along the time line, or zooming in or out. This movement adds to the idea of linear progression of time, the user zooms through the months. The typography is key aspect of the design, that being the focus of the website, it creates a set atmosphere along with the colour and background image, which suggests a cool and sleek feel to the work of Nakamura. All his work goes along with grids giving a neat look and understandable structure.

As you can see in the shot below of his website, the website is structured yet free flowing because there is lot in what the user can interact with, and because this website is designed to show the work of mono crafts it demonstrates the professionalism of the company and the work of Nakamura.

Having looked at his other work such as entropy which has matched motion logic with geometric progression one can learn a lot about design and apply these lessons in their work.
