Linked by Air designed some murals for a corporate office. The designs were built around Google's Material Design icons. To help with producing assets, I built this program that renders images in pixels made up of icons.

I think the mural went a different direction but the tool still produces some interesting images. The ones above are tests on various stolen images from the planet/net (Pla-Net)

The code for this is open source by the way!

Linked by Air was asked to produce the exhibition website for Jay-Z's retrospective exhibition at the Brooklyn Public Library. Roc Nation was extremely invested in making this rich exhibition as accessible as possible, and to echo that our website served two functions — and as a result had a unique take on responsive design.

The mobile version serves as an exhibition companion, featuring an audio guide and maps of the library. Visitors were instructed to scan QR codes to tune into Angie Martinez narrate the tour (produced by Aaron Edwards among other talents at Pineapple Street Studios). The interface then breaks the physical exhibition space into small groups.

On desktop, the website acts more as a digital recreation of the exhibition made for users visiting from afar. The audio guide is represented as an editorial experience. The collection of artifacts is displayed more as an archive than a recreation of the exhibition design.

The data model for this site is very cool, and the editing interface is a rich foundation for other exhibition websites we may use in the future. But that's a bit secret for now :-)

This was also one my first sites featuring i18n, which was extremely exciting to implement!
