One Million Dollars

Jacques Dutronc has established himself as one of the most popular figures on the French music scene. His insolent attitude and offbeat sense of humor have won him thousands of fans around the world. Needless to say his official website was eagerly expected to fit his nonchalant playboy image and his legendary irony. In order to mark his long-awaited comeback on tour, we designed a fully animated website around a graphical music quiz. Pretty amazing!

You do have a social life. What about a SocialShop? Why wouldn't you share your shopping bag with your friends in order to buy products in bulk and split shipping fees? That's the purpose of SocialShop: engaging your friends to shop smarter. Powered by the Borderlinx API, the website helps you to create a "social shopping list" and share it via Facebook, Twitter or by email. It's free and anyone can join in just a few clicks. You can even save time by using the "ShopMarklet" to quickly add items from any e-shop.

If you don't know what it is, you really need to be updaTED! TED is a compelling organization well-known for its invitation-only conference devoted to a broad set of topics including technology, entertainment and design. In the spirit of "ideas worth spreading", TEDxBrussels is a local self-organised event that brings people together to share a TED-like experience.
As long-standing TEDsters, we are more than a little proud to have made their trailer.

Borderlinx allows you to purchase products online even if the e-commerce sites only deliver within the US or the UK. It does provide a really great service but it's quite hard to explain to the novices. So we produced a full 3D animation video in Cinema 4D to make things perfectly clear. If a picture is worth a thousand words, our video should be worth about 1,500,000 ones.

You know its name. You know its taste. But do you know its new website? Throughout the year, the well-known liquor brand Malibu is organizing dozens of parties everywhere in Belgium and Luxembourg. The website we made displays pictures of these not-so-moderate events. But there's more: customize your own 3D Malibu bottle (Papervision3D) and try to generate the longest friends chain in the world in order to win your holidays to Ibiza.

We made our very first iPhone application for Borderlinx using the framework from PhoneGap. This free app allows you to estimate the global cost (duty, taxes and shipping) before you buy from any online US shop.

Cherry is a new mobile operator in Belgium which use a revolutionnary technology based on WiFi to make and receive calls! 1MD realized the general graphic identity, a teasing video and the corporate website.

1MD likes to foster collaboration & innovation. That's why we get deeply involved in the BetaGroup project, which intends to connect Entrepreneurs, Creative Thinkers, Software Developers, Digital Marketers and Business Angels to innovate together. To create the BetaGroup logo, we mixed the "rock'n'roll" touch every start-up has with a healthy dose of professionalism. A simple logo with telling effect. Next step: the website?

When a photographer's site is called "Eye Design" it definitely needs an eye-catching interface. And what could be catchier than a full flash experience with zoom shots and intuitive tracking? We also had fun juggling with the dots from the logo. A simple yet amazingly powerful way to highlight a portfolio.

Inspired by Mac OS' column view we designed a full flash website to show off the noteworthy cases of a talented architect. Once again we rhymed ergonomics with esthetics. Papervision3D effects empower transitions between pictures and projects. Who said architecture was boring?

so-smart URL is a classic URL shortener system (like TinyURL, bit.ly or i5.be) but it's the first URL shortnener sponsorized by a brand! In this case, the brand is smart, the very small cars you can see everywhere in the city with which it's very easy to park in small spaces. The principle of shortening URLs fits totally with the values of smart and we're very happy that they accepted our idea and just did it with us!

Everything is about prejudices. It's time to fight them and change your mind! Maybe you think SUV are not suited for cities? You are wrong! The Soul is a new kind of car which is not afraid to be different. We wanted people to use this website as a free area to express themselves about a prejudice they suffered one day. You can customize your prejudice as a little character (you can even make it look like famous belgian bloggers) and then see how people react to it!

Calimùcho is an inspired architectural bureau with a subtle combination between architects and technologists. When we checked the photos with the client and saw the impressive work they accomplished during last years, we decided to make the website as minimalist as possible to let the pictures speak by themselves. We wanted to turn this project into an intuitive experience of navigation, making the user totally impregnated by the architectural lines. We used Flash to create a smooth and fluid interface and we played a lot with horizontal and vertical movements to fit the main concept of architecture.

The client is an amazing video agency in Brussels. They wanted a nice website, easy to manage. The budget was not huge, but we wanted people to talk about this website in a way or another. We developed it to make it look like a Flash website but we only used CSS and JavaScript animations. We pushed so far JavaScript animations that the website made a hit on CSS galleries, design galleries & blogs all around the world!

The website was featured on Smashing Magazine (1|2), Six Revisions (1|2), Noupe, Web Designer Wall, Web Creme and many more...

Another original feature is the mixed use of Twitter and Flickr with a handmade CMS as a backend application.

Our little teaser for the launch of 1MD! We reveal the meaning of the acronym (One Million Dollars) and tease for « why the hell this name? »... A strange name in the actual economic context...

Our goal is to reach $1.000.000. If we succeed, we'll share the money! We think it's time for no more bullshit and full transparency. We show in real time how much we earn and we go even further... if we reach our dream goal, we spend the money the way you choose!

We do print work too. We are 3 designers with experience in the printing world. Working for Close on their folder was really great, even if the subject was really specific (ventilation and air conditioning). We were free to make a simple, clean and readable folder expressing their philosophy (professional and efficient).

The main concern of the client was: « Why can't people find us in Google? » The answer was simple: a crappy website built in a crappy way. We made a simple but efficient website using a custom and simple handmade CMS. Type « pharmacie Wallonie », into Google and you will now find EPC-Familia in the top 5!
