Dedicated to everyone affected by tragic recent events
From toys to robots to animation, Japan always seem to have something unique to offer. It should come as no surprise, then, that Japanese web design got its own character, so to speak.
More recently, Speckyboy published an article on Japanese Website Design Trends (which you can read here):
Japan plays host to some very impressive website designers. Their skills in the arts cannot be compared and demonstrate a powerful digital force among Internet readers. Luckily understanding how to read Japanese isn’t required to admire their website graphics and animation effects.
We’ll be looking into a few Japanese website designs which have pushed the limits on conventional development. As a designer it’s a refreshing feeling to work with alternate design concepts and build your own unique ideas off these.
And there were plenty of discussions on Japanese Web Design in previous years, as well:
