Issey Miyake New Website with Mind-blowing Flash Intro

issey miyake new website v2

Following on from the OVO Minimalist Watch we featured earlier on TFTS I was reading Electro Plankton today who noted that Issey Miyake’s new website had launched and I was tempted to take a look. And we’re glad I did.

It’s not very often we post about a site in particular here on TFTS, and its even less often that we don’t skip lengthy flash (often extremely laborious) introductions to websites, but the Flash intro to the new Issey Miyake website simply blew us away with its brilliant concept, fluid animation and great sound track. It simply oozes style.

You can see the flash intro below, and it’s well worth a look.

                    Wow, I love the flash intro – the percussion is outstanding. I think it is worth watching again, so does my husband, he watched it over and over and over…… I think the concept is incredibly clever. I wonder if there is more of this type of website anywhere else on the web?

                    Hi Sam,

                    Thank you for taking the time to comment.

                    Glad you liked it – it certainly made an impression on us (and we agree, the soundtrack is very catchy).

                    We will be looking to feature more sites that offer a great user experience in the future, so stay tuned! :-)

                    Sorry, fell asleep half way through as it was far too long and boring for me – so I missed who won. It was a computerised game of Scrabble wasn’t it?
