DESCRIPTION

Form Follows Function is a collection of interactive experiences, each with its own unique design and functionality. The collection is created using HTML5, ensuring compatibility and optimal performance on both desktop and tablet devices. This project demonstrates the capabilities of current technology and pushes the boundaries of what is possible within a browser-based experience.

One particularly noteworthy aspect of this project is the “Wiper Typography” section, which was inspired by an interesting episode during its development. The design and interaction had already been conceptualized, but the challenge of creating the necessary Javascript code initially stumped me. However, after two days of contemplation, I woke up with the solution and was able to implement it within 30 minutes. This section holds a special place in the project, as it exemplifies the power of perseverance and inspiration.

This project is not just a collection of HTML5 experiences, but also a reflection of my personal interests and inspirations. As an admirer of artists like Vincent van Gogh, Rene Magritte, and Andy Warhol, as well as concepts such as the Golden Ratio, minimal design, and typography, these influences are evident throughout the project. For example, the “Plant Trees” experience was inspired by Rene Magritte’s “Empire of Light”, depicting the paradoxical combination of day and night. The trees in this experience are dark during the day, but bright and colorful at night.
