Grace Magazine website Gracestyle.com scoops Gold Ozzie at Folio Show for Best Site 2002.
Los Angeles, Ca Nov 15 2002 – SOLLY COMMUNICATIONS today announced that client Grace Media Inc has been awarded the Folio Show’s prestigious Gold Ozzie award for Best Site: Gracestyle.com. Solly Communications provided Content Planning, Interface and Site design, and implementation for the site that debuted in April 2002.
Comprising entries from around the world, the Gold Ozzie represents the publishing industry’s ‘Oscar’ equivalent. An annual black tie event in New York, and now in their 16th year, the Ozzie awards are given in recognition of excellence in magazine design in 14 categories covering the consumer, business to business, association and custom segments.
The Judges’ comments:
“This Web site offers an exemplary user experience. The site meets the criteria of orientation and relevance from the first glance at its visually stunning home page. The site's designers have done an excellent job of creating dramatic graphics that are surprisingly quick to load. Grace is permission-based, sparing its readers the usual onslaught of third-party ads and popups. Web users' interactions with the site are rewarded with fresh layouts and ever-present contextual navigation. Combining a glossy look with this best-of-breed Web implementation, this site delivers on its promise. Grace, indeed.”
“We set out to create something vastly different from traditional magazine sites and are pleased to be recognized for this work” said Lloyd Solly creative director at Solly Communications. “Developing an interactive environment for readers to contribute to the media process is something not leveraged enough by many sites. Grace Magazine want to push the envelope of traditional web publishing and actually build an environment where users participate, rather than just swallow banner-ads.”
