ps.2 is a studio focused in architecture and design. Fábio Prata and Flávia Nalon Founded this studio in 2003 and since then have been developing a great work in these areas. Essentially, this studio works in a cultural environment creating visual images mainly to museums, art galleries, new media festivals, music labels, art and photography. It’s a work based on research, technique and knowledge achieving original and creative solutions. Concept is their key word, which establishes the formal and functional aspect of the product. Interesting results come from the attempt to develop the best work possible.
What caught my attention in this website was the solution for the menu. All the work presented is in the main page and the user can filter the information using the ‘filter menu’ on the right side. Colours were used to define each filter, creating a very interesting and simple visual effect. It is possible to filter the information/work defining Colours, Type Family, Paper and Finishing. Some filters may not be understood and easy to relate with the work in a first instance but for users that are familiar with ‘design’ and ‘arts’ language it can be very handy. It is also a very unique way to organize and present a portfolio/information.
