Design / FLOWSI.DE
FLOWSI.DE
Drawing inspiration from Bang & Olufsen's iconic Beosound 9000, FLOWSI.DE is a fully-featured showcase player built on the SoundCloud API.
Originally planned as a small personal project to showcase some of the latest music I had been working on, FLOWSI.DE eventually led me down the path of designing and developing with the SoundCloud API for the web app environment.
After window shopping for high end stereo components, I created a UI that worked much like a record or CD deck would in the real world, complete with spinback animations and cover art pulled directly from SoundCloud itself.
The resulting product (and code) is surprisingly clean and semantic. It works not only on standard desktop browsers, but also as a web app on tablet and mobile devices, including support for scrubbing interactions.
