The New York Times: LENS

Subject: LENS (The New York Times)
Website: http://lens.blogs.nytimes.com/

About a year ago, The New York Times launched an exquisitely curated and archived photo blog called LENS, featuring astounding photojournalism from the past and present.  This slick and silent panther of a design represents some of the best that professional Flash design has to offer.  Set against a canvas of warm gray, the accessible design steps unobtrusively aside, appropriately enabling the photography (and video) to be the star.  No stupid razzle-dazzle or needless bells and whistles.  Just a smart, sophisticated and soberly-executed photography blog that loads lightning fast… all possible with Adobe Flash.

As with all the designs featured in this section, our friends at Apple will not allow you to enjoy this website on your iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad. View full article »

A clean, clever and whimsical approach to a website for a recording artist whose body of work stretches back to the 1960s. It’s completely approachable, not over-produced, a sheer pleasure to look through. View full article »

Jean Malek – Montreal Photographer

Montreal interactive design house Akufen (http://www.akufen.ca/#en/projects) pulled together this amazing Flash portfolio for photographer Jean Malek. The site unfolds (literally) like origami, creating an exquisite interface that beautifully showcases Malek’s camera work. Like a lot of smart Flash sites, jeanmalek.com features a fullscreen option that enables an optimum view of the content, as well as a polite, soft, subtle and non-intrusive use of sound.
