This is a demo site built by 44dat. The studio, its work and its people are fictional and unrelated to any real company.

MOTION AS PROOF

Some things onlyprove themselves in motion.

A still frame can only say so much. How a material catches light, how a surface answers when you push it — we would rather show you than describe it. Design, 3D and engineering sit in the same team, so we skip the storyboard-about-a-storyboard and bring something that runs in your browser to the first meeting.

STUDIO

We design what stays with youafter you close the tab.

We do not chase whatever is trending. The question we start from is how a brand's own texture and temperature survive translation to a screen — and we answer it from scratch every time. No two sites we make look alike.

Creative direction, 3D and interactive engineering all live in house. Nothing thins out as it changes hands. The idea in the first sketch arrives at the last commit at the same temperature.

CAPABILITY

  1. 01

    Realtime 3D

    WebGL and WebGPU rendering on real hardware. Modelling, shaders and performance budgets are ours end to end.

  2. 02

    Interaction design

    Scroll, cursor, sound. We treat the few dozen milliseconds between input and response as part of the craft.

  3. 03

    Translating a brand

    Turning a world that has never been written down into colour, motion and pacing on screen.

  4. 04

    Build and beyond

    Front-end engineering, performance work, and measurement after launch — we stay on after the site ships.
