Feature: Homepage Color Search
The website is constructed around a painter's palette, where the entire archive is searchable via a color chart, and all images are showcased on top of complementary colors instead of against a traditional white backdrop.
Feature: Color Search Results
We created an algorithm that analyzes each image to determine its dominant color. This algorithm automatically runs as Erik uploads photos to the site, allowing each color section to remain current with all his latest photos.
Feature: Design
Each photograph layout uses the same color search algorithm to determine a background color based on the images predominant hues. Erik was given overides in instances in which he wanted to adjust the background colors that were automatically asigned.
Promo Video:
GrayBits created a video to announce the launch of Erik's new website. The video takes visitors on a tour of the new interfaces present on the site while also providing context for the conceptual ideas that grounded the updated design.
