Her official website, created by the design and development team at MODERNWHOLE, launched in June 2010 and features striking images in a bold, colorful design. The look and feel emulate Keyshia’s high-energy, starlet lifestyle partying with her girlfriends (her Dior Dolls), glamming for magazine photoshoots and hosting a lipstick line called “KA’OIR.”

Keyshia frequently published on her blog with the latest images, announcements and news of her entrepreneurial endeavors. The website is equipped with an interactive gallery full of stunning shots, and tweets about Keyshia stream in by the minute. This cutting-edge web project was developed using an array of dynamic web elements such as XHTML/CSS, PHP, Javascript, a custom Content Management System (CMS) and the sophisticated blogging platform, WordPress.

Houston native Ben Guerra, co-founder of MODERNWHOLE, states, “Our SEV [Search Engine Visibility] team has sent a fine-toothed comb through Keyshia’s website several times. Her name, her brand and her work are in good hands.”

In seeing to completion Keyshia’s online presence, MODERNWHOLE worked closely with one of its lead affiliates, Be Gravity, a digital brand development firm also originated in Houston. They collaborated on the creation of a “cool” entertainment and corporate brand to deliver the Hip Hop star to a broad audience. The rich, crisp photography scattered throughout the website is the work of photographer Alain Green and Keyshia’s publicist, Janero Marchand.

All eyes will be on this rising star as she continues to gain popularity outside of the Hip Hop world, in such industries as fashion, advertising and modeling. She has worked with stars Timbaland, Drake, Lil Wayne, Birdman, Rick Ross and Gucci Mane. Other large-scale MODERNWHOLE design projects on the horizon include the new NaN Player, The Ford Plantation and Ernesto Moreira Inc.

In a brilliant display of creativity and technical exploration, the folks over at Dentsu London show us what can be accomplished with the help of the innovative devices that have been put out in the market lately, such as computer tablets.

Via a series of photographic and animation techniques, they developed a process that allowed them to draw moving 3-D typography and objects in space using an iPad. By playing movies in dark environments on the surface of the tablet and extruding 3-D lightforms that glide in multiple exposures, they created a mellow piece that explores the morphing and floating of typeface objects.

Great example of what creative projects can accomplish with the help of new technologies.

What you see reflected in our re-brand and site re-design is a depiction of our design philosophy: The name ModernWhole™ comes from the concept of fully executing an idea, completing it entirely, while aesthetically drawing from modernism, our main source of inspiration.

In the same context, we chose the typeface Avenir (Avenir Next, 2004) as the identity representation of our logo. Inspired by geometrics, simplicity, and functionality, all attributes of a modernistic approach, it renders meaning to the word that represents it; ‘Future’.

ModernWhole™ strives to make the future present through design.
