Thanks guy, I'll be looking at them
I'm looking for "good websites" :wink: For example I find Zaha's website incrible hard to navigate and boring :shock: ... I'm sure this is all matter of preference... Nice architecture, poor website :lol:
(This is just my opinion ofcourse!)


I need some oppinions :D


Fisrt, for the website:
All Flash / 50% Flash / No flash

In the begining it was cool to see the flash intros and all that but now, is kindda getting a little anoying... Is it my imagination? or most of you still find it entretaining

The back buttom, I hate pressing it and because it's allflash site, it takes me to the begining of the page :x

yep, I can't stand it either. speaking of intros, the only cool thing about them is the skip button.

flash / no flash depends a bit on your firm's style i suppose.
flash firm = flash site.
i prefer no flash too. except real flashy flash.
problem with many arch sites is that the arch cannot leave the web designer alone and tries to impose his design genius on the website too.
here's an old ultra weird site from the flash heyday

Here's some with less flash:

I have to include our own even though we haven't updated it in a over a year because it's gotten us several great projects. No flash.
