Ozone Kitesurfing is a worldwide supplier of cutting edge snow and surf kites and accessories to a passionate community of technical thrill seekers. The kitesurfing branch of this global company is based right here in NZ, and they wanted an updated website to better showcase their exciting news and products. I was responsible for responsive web design and front-end coding for Ozone's stylish new web presence.
Surf + Tech
The design for Ozone Kitesurfing was a careful balance between surf and tech. While their customers cross over with the surf culture, they tend to be older and much more technically minded. The design aesthetic mixed visual languages of both these demographics.

Multi-faceted product display
The product detail screens proved to be the biggest design challenge in this project. They contained a huge amount of technical product information, graphs, images, videos, photos, size, and colour options, which all had create the right rhythm between inspiration and information.

Thinking globally
Ozone's huge range of global suppliers mean they needed a website to serve as hub of contact information for locations across the world.
