TERRY FARRELL AND PARTNERS

摘要

Architect Terry Farrell and Partners, famous for its redevelopment of Charing Cross station in the late eighties, hit the news this month with rumours that its ￡90m aquarium in London's Docklands could be scrapped because of the credit crunch. But what's its website like? The site is minimalist with all content designed to fit tidily into a single screen, but with a lack of navigation. Good practices in architecture, such as squeezing as much as you can into one space, do not translate well to the web. Reading the site's content is a chore using their text scroll buttons. This could have been avoided by having all the text displayed on the same page at once.
