I was hired by Tangent Communications plc to architect and design a new site for Paco Rabanne. I led a team of developers and designers, and I was my job to cooridinate the the developement of the project, delegating work and providing support to the other team members. The site was built using a combination of PureMVC, XML, Bulkloader, SwfAddress and Papervision. Tangents client had some strong ideas during development, most of which were excellent, but on a few occations they couldn’t be swayed on some usability issues. So there are some ‘interesting’ nuances to the site, one of which is linking to old content held outside the site, however the biggest concession made was the lack of any real menu system. You have to navigate back to the landing page each time you want to load a new section. We did however sqeeze a sudo quick menu in place of the site structure, but I feel the site is still lacking something a little more intuative, guess you can’t win em all.
