Promo website for Prof-Press publishing house

For the first time in the history of Belarus, steampunk and serious publishing establishments have made friends.

The studio has created unique relations between the style of the alternative subculture and the needs of the establishment. A solitary example in the history of Belarus when the promo website for a range of serious establishments has been created using the “steampunk” forms. Steampunk is a genre of science fiction which incorporates perfect knowledge of mechanics and technology into civilization simulation. The PRAS.by team believed that was the best allegory for the publishing house which consists of the publishing office, printing house, two radio stations and a newspaper. Things are published and go on air using mechanic and electronic devices which have been used as a basis of the general style of the website.

The animation of the continuous movement of mechanisms add some flavor to this website

The main colours of the pages are purple blue and the colour of rust to emphasize the mechanisms and the chosen style of the design. The main points of visual attraction have cyan shades which symbolize flame and smoke from a fire and other “attributes” of mechanic and steam machines. So that the website looks modern and does not resemble a virtual engine museum, all details have been drawn in a simplified form.
Gradually, each organization of the publishing house will get a promo video which will be placed on the corresponding pages and the website will unfold. All animated elements are perfectly displayed both on PCs and smartphones using HTML5 and CSS3 technologies.
