HIP HOTELS MUSIC

HIP HOTELS MUSIC

The cool, new music service for hotels from the style hunters at HIP Hotels offers an online musical smorgasbord of nine ambient zones to select from, downloaded to an on-site control box and piped to selected locations around the property.

Katana creates one of its most beautiful and technical flash interfaces for the site, as well as a bespoke content management system and an interface for clients of the service to login and manage their music.

Pretty pictures...

A beautifully clean and fast-loading flash website for make-up artist Florence Bacquert, designed to showcase gorgeous images within an intuitive navigational framework. Fashion people are busy and like their sites simple and easy to use.
