Absent Skateboards

Website

There are two common templates for skateboard websites: a shopping cart site similar to eBay, and a horizontal site resembling a magazine. After sketching some site maps, an experimental design was developed. The content is divided into three pieces: the left holds information pieces; the center contains a scrollable list of boards; and the right showcases the selected deck design.

Combining hardware and plywood decks, skateboards have been around for well over half a century. Absent Skateboard designs celebrate the sport via different series of whimsical designs.
