Fuzzco

It’s so great to see a familiar face in Skirt! Go get yourself a copy!

Ridiculously famous and talented fashion photographer Mario Testino launched his new site over the weekend and it’s both gorgeous and potentially seizure-inducing. Our friends over at King & Partners reached out to us to work as their development partner for this project and we’re proud to have been a part of it. Check out the folio system that allows users to create their own accounts to save and share self-curated collections of Mario’s work. Complicated to build but pretty amazing in execution. The site also features both keyboard integration and unique view-toggling in photo slideshows as well as layered full-screen video. What you can’t see on the back-end is a simple yet powerful WordPress system that gives the client full control over site content.

After coats and coats of web polish, we’re proud to announce MoranWoodworked.com, a labor of love.

We’ve had the pleasure of working with Michael and Celia on custom furniture for our spaces and they’ve always delivered beautiful work. Highly recommend these hardworking, friendly folks for all of your wooden needs.

We’d be lying if we said we weren’t disappointed.

Fuzzco’s love for cruel and inhuman dictatorships is so great that any missed opportunity to design for a soul-crushing government makes us sad. The recent redesign of North Korea’s official website has been a sore point since its launch.

But when we discovered last week that the site that seeks to make the denial of personal liberties look like a trip to Big Rock Candy Mountain was built on a generic $15 WordPress template, we shed bitter tears.

To all present and future rulers planning to drink $720,000 worth of Hennessy in a single year, starving and imprisoning their people while eating lobster in a personal armored train: Fuzzco can do a better job.

So Kim Jong-un, if you want to follow in the false-image-projecting footsteps of your father, if you want to show the world that you’re truly “a great person born of heaven”, let Fuzzco show you the way.

P.S. This blog is my favorite thing about North Korea that’s ever appeared on the Internet. It’s a train-crazy Austrian’s tale of his not-quite-legal rail journey from Vienna all the way to the heart of the Hermit Kingdom.

If you applied for the Creative Director or Marketer positions on our site Wednesday or Thursday morning we did not get your application. We would be so honored if you’d reapply. Our apologies. Here is a cute picture of Brother that hopefully eases the pain.
