Photo-digital collage :: Axis

Behind the scenes:

This is one of a series of collages designed as page-theme backdrops for a web site. The goal of this series was to provide a dynamic, futuristic atmosphere that stimulates the visitor's imagination towards the possibilities of technology.

We acheived this effect through the dichotomous use of angular shapes, organic textures, and electrically charged imagery. We increased the tension and excitement through the use of many layers, and through a strong contrast of shadow and light, choosing subjects indicative of space, mystery and the unknown, futuristic cityscapes, and other technology archetypes.

The final designs were trimmed down and fitted into a sidebar underneath the navigation links. By using a semi-transparent mask we provided enough contrast to allow the navigation text to be legible.
