First Friday Focus of the new year, and what a bad start, already a day behind! Unfortunately I wasn’t home much yesterday, so I didn’t get a chance to type up this weeks FF until today. Definitely on my list of new years resolutions I have to make – Make sure Friday Focus occurs on Fridays!
Anyways, enough talk, and let’s take a look at what was good this first week of 2007.
Sites of the Week
The first site up this week is Snagt. Snagt is a portfolio of artwork and photographs, and I love how well the site does in displaying it. A playful site that really goes well with the many sketches on the site.
Next up is the excellent and extensive portfolio of Shane Mielke. Works include various designs and sites for car companies, Motorola, the FWA, and many more.
Finally this week we have the Norwegian Cruise Lines site, sporting ocean blues and illustration that really shows off a fun and vibrant atmosphere. And of course, most of you probably know I’m a sucker for ocean like designs :).
