To view the final project, point your browser to thedecisionlaboratory.com

I wish you the best of luck exploring the unknown,

catalog and website

Posted in 03: Decision Laboratory on April 18, 2010 by Chris

Well it sure has been a bit since my last update. But I assure you, I’ve been quite busy.

I’m mostly through the catalog, which there is a link to view below. It will be printed black and white xerox (most likely) and viewable on the website. I was going to have it as a pdf download, but I’m afraid it will look bad when downloaded (its 40 pages, so the file has to be small for web downloads). Im thinking now that I would have it as an “issuu” type display, so you could get more of the catalog flipping experience.

All in all i’m quite happy with it (and running out of time), so im not looking for too specific of feedback, but if anything really is noteworthy or bothers you, please, let me know!

I have been working on the website, and would like you to go tool around on it. It’s very straight forward, and still very in progress. Also, understand that it’s sole function is to be a teaser to the catalog, and to be a digital documentation of the project.
