JLern Design

I am very fond of the fluid interface for this design portfolio site. The concept is simple enough: click a section to zoom to the detail level. The rotation is very intuitive, the transitions are smooth, and the layout is clean. Notice the organic animation that takes place when you hover over a section.
This interface approach reminds me of the work of Jef Raskin, an early Mac pioneer and user interface researcher. The Raskin Center is working on new techniques to interface with data as demonstrated in the following concept interface.
