This is hot, Vol. 1
MC Dion
and Bastien Allard
Every month(ish) some Locomotive creatives join forces to share some fine websites they’ve come across, for a myriad of reasons, from design to dev and just overall coolness and flavour! Here’s our first round of selects for your digital pleasure.

Lewa House
Dust: An organic piece of work. The textures and transitions take us on a trip.
Bastien: Care brought to the interactive map and micro-interactions, and more broadly, to the details. An immersion into this universe. And also... superb collaboration between different talents.
Icelandic Explorer
MC: Ingenious, the best way to highlight these images, wow.
Dust: The layout’s simplicity and originality give off that Marvin Schwaibold signature.
Bastien: The ambient simplicity hides an underlying complexity that highlights the photographer’s work and plunges the user into natural settings.
Take a Ride With Me
Dust: Light despite the animations and multiple videos, very smooth, and with playful design. A simple immersion through good content and exaggerated layouts and typography.
Bastien: The site’s ability to very simply transport the user onto immersive mountain bike trails.
LaManna’s
MC: Playful! The illustrations, colours and large typography really suit the subject matter: huge slices of pizza!
