Barcinski & Jeanjean

For the past few months, in between other projects, I have been working on a website for a very talented photographer, who also happends to be my sister, Géraldine Jeanjean. She is about to release a book which portraits a small village situated in the most sparsely populated region in France, called Aumont. The idea behind the website was to offer two ways to explore Aumont by combining horizontal and vertical navigation. Horizontaly gives you an impression as you would get by walking in and around the village; you see landscapes, meet a person, notice a house, meet another person, maybe even noticing an old family portrait hanging on the wall in a local bar. All these different aspects mixed together. Verticaly, however, you can explore Aumont within one aspect; meet all the people in a row, or take a walk outside the village to enjoy all the landscapes, or take the architectural route by going up or down on a photograph of a building. A decision to make for each photo; which way to go? But don’t worry, no matter which way you choose, you will see them all. Have a look.
