Why is this work relevant for Digital Craft?

This work stands out in Design because it directly tackles the challenge of making complex, technical web experiences both beautiful and easy to understand. By redesigning our website, Lusion demonstrates how design can go beyond looks to create stories that engage users from the first click. We focused on making something that isn’t just technically impressive but also visually appealing and user-friendly, even on mobile devices. Our website isn’t just a portfolio; it’s proof that design can break barriers(literally), brings a fresh perspective to digital design, showing its power to transform tech into art that speaks to users directly.

Please provide any cultural context that would help the Jury understand any cultural, national or regional nuances applicable to this work.

Our website redesign was all about showing brands and agencies what makes Lusion special. In the digital design world, it's not enough to just have a good-looking site. You need to stand out by how you solve problems and tell stories. That's our strength. We made our new site to clearly show this to our potential clients around the world. We focused on making something that isn't just cool to look at but also shows our way of thinking and working.

We know our audience doesn't want complexity; they want to see creativity and practical solutions. Our redesign is our way of saying, 'Here's what we can do for you.' It's not just a portfolio. It's proof that we understand the challenges brands and agencies face and that we're here to offer something different. We aimed for a design that's innovative but also easy to get into, showing we're ready to help clients stand out in their own markets."

This revision aims to maintain clarity and directness, focusing on Lusion's objectives and how the website serves as a strategic tool for engaging with brands and agencies.

Background:

Situation:

Lusion faced the challenge of distinguishing itself in a crowded digital landscape. The goal was to not just be another studio but to showcase our unique blend of creativity and digital craftsmanship.

Describe the creative idea

We believe the best way to show our clients how we can use design and technology to solve their marketing problems is to demonstrate it and let them experience it firsthand. This philosophy guided the creative idea behind Lusion's website redesign. Our goal was to craft a digital space that acts as a living portfolio, one that goes beyond showcasing our past projects to provide an immersive journey into the world of digital innovation.

To achieve this, we integrated real-time 3D visuals, interactive storytelling, and meaningful animations, creating an explorative experience that exemplifies our ability to blend aesthetics with functionality. We demonstrated how we can break creative boundaries (literally) in a storytelling web experience and how we apply our expertise in digital craft to create compelling, innovative solutions.
