Design agency Bong turns the internet into a playground, one website at a time

Date
8 May 2015

I’d say that as a general rule, if you click onto a web design studio’s site to be met with a haze of gold glitter drifting across your screen, disrupted by four gong-like letterforms clanging against one another with commanding sound effects, you know you’ve hit upon something good. Websites these days are a whole lot more sophisticated than they used to be, and partly responsible for that is Bong International. Ben West and Simon Sweeney, aka Bong, are the geniuses behind this masterpiece and many others like it, from clean, pared-back artist websites to Matrix-esque holding pages and gallery sites, and between them they’re giving us plenty of cool shit to play with.
