Design Exploration- Barcinski & Jeanjean

Barcinski & Jeanjean is a two-men interactive studio based in Amsterdam. Their passion is creating innovative interactive experiences, as you can tell by their site. Their names are Mark Barcinski and Adrien Jeanjean. They met each other when they started as HTML freelancers at EuroRSCG Interactive Amsterdam in 1999. After a few years, Flash 5 appeared with interesting ActionScript capabilities for programmers such as the two of them. They soon specialized in building Websites, Banner Campaigns and Games in Flash. In 2004 they started a Freelance career. They grew into all-round Multimedia Engineers, expanding to other fields of interest such as Video, Audio, Interaction, Design and Concept Creation.

Here are some clients of theirs:
EuroRSCG 4D
Framfab
Lostboys
Proximity
Oer
Clockwork
IBM

You can view the site either normal, or in 3D (with the proper glasses, of course.) Their site is basically set up to be viewed in 3D. They even had some glasses made with their company name on them. The whole thing is centered on the two men, with examples of their work twirling around them. They even keep you entertained while you wait for the site to load, by letting you play pong while you wait (also in 3D.) The site is viewed in a 360 degree panorama style. Theyre standing in the middle of Amsterdam, right around the corner from their studio. The site is innovative and shows off their style, and right away lets you enjoy every little detail. Its creative but not crazy, and fun but still simple. Plus, if you get bored you can always go play some more pong.
