Sierra Bravo’s Overnight Website Challenge

Published on Feb. 27, 2009

Tomorrow morning, starting at 7:00 a.m. I will be joining 119 other local developers and designers for a good cause. We are split into 12 teams, and each team is assigned a different non-profit organization. We will work for 24 hours straight to build a complete solution, and then present our results to a panel of judges. The challenge is very development-centric, the teams are loaded with web-dev talent from the Twin Cities. My assumption going into this challenge (and from their banner) is that our result may not be a design beauty, but it will have the functionality and clarity to help this organization for a long time to come.
Hopefully I get some good sleep tonight.

Colle + McVoy Responsive Signage

To express our capabilities and make our space speak to what we do, we enhanced our existing plastic logotype with a hidden projector and camera. Mapping our projections to the space, we created sequences of illumination for the lettering and created a play between virtual and physical objects that responds to the activity of people in the space.

Cyclist Mural

As avid bikers at Colle + McVoy we rose to the occasion and created a mural, using rear-projection and top-mounted camera. We decided to show the many styles of cycling and have some fun with it!
