fourpillars is a boutique design agency based in Athens, Greece that always strives to push the boundaries, bringing state-of-the-art technologies to their clients.
Looking at the logo and the meaning behind it calls to mind the agency’s national history as it represents the minimalist depiction of the ancient Doric columns – the primary building blocks of great European architectural wonders.
Right from the start, it’s safe to say that fourpillars’s website takes scrolling effects to new heights or a new level if you will. It is, in fact, a perfect example of how a fairly monochromatic, minimalistic outlook, paired with creative parallax effects creates a seamless user experience and a genuinely satisfying escapade.
The site’s user journey is dominated by morphing illustrations formed by the four lines and five squares that continuously jumble around to form new figures.
As visitors begin scrolling down, the four vertical words that represent the agency‘s brand messaging (or four main pillars) start to descend, revealing the complete logo.
Next, still triggered by scrolling, the logo morphs into figures with abstract messaging that expound on each of the agency’s pillars.
This is possibly one of the most creative usages of scrolling effects we’ve ever witnessed and is definitely one of a kind.
Bonus tip: Keep scrolling until the lines form an asterisk that splits sideways. You will find yourself inside a game similar to the legendary "Pong", one of the first arcades ever created.
The whole experience seamlessly communicates the agency’s philosophy – delivering creative solutions through simplicity, commanded by users (clients) themselves.
