User Interface - SoundSoap
The application was intended for both a consumer a professional audience. The front-end of the app had to be inviting, fun and easy to use. We had the name of the app and the "wash window" concept at the outset of the project giving us a focus in developing the ideas. The design draws from the old oscilliscope days with the round the CRT displays, the futuristic design of art deco and the sixties using ovals to depict futursim and the larger than life analog knobs for key controls that are often used now on jog/shuttle kind of controls. We wanted to do all that while having a design that became "invisible" when the user began to do "their work" like any good functional design should. >>
