Monzilla Media designed the original website for art{space} magazine.
One of the first websites designed by Monzilla Media, art{space} magazine is an exercise in translating print layout and design into online media. To achieve its complex, highly specific presentational composition, the art{space} site employs static table-based structure coupled embellished with lavish portions of CSS and graphical imagery. Although this implementation of design elements has long-since been abandoned in favor of standards-based (X)HTML/CSS production, the pixel-perfect accuracy afforded by the rigorous use of “old-school” development techniques ensures precise cross-browser display, while maintaining strict fidelity to the original print-version compositions.
Virtually every aspect of the art{space} site was conceived, written, and created by Monzilla Media (i.e., me, Jeff Starr). This includes in-depth articles on art-related philosophy, custom digital imagery, complex layouts, and highly specific visual effects. Table-based and archaic, yes — but in its sheer complexity and sincere originality, the art{space} site remains a solid example of the vision and creativity needed to excel in the highly competitive world of website design.
The site was built entirely in (X)HTML and CSS, with Monzilla Media services including the following:
- Content production and custom design
- Brand identity and strategic site planning
- Domain name consultation and registration
- Custom graphic design for site imagery
