Buckle up! We’re diving into the world of travel website design.

Double Click is a series of interviews by It’s Nice That, bringing you some of their favourite websites and digital designs floating around out there on the world wide web.

For April’s Double Click, we were asked to walk through our experience working on Avaunt’s new website and for a newly invigorated travel industry.

Travel websites can merely be, as they were originally, online destinations to help facilitate travel through booking flights or accommodation. But they can also be websites dedicated to the art of travel and to the spirit of exploration.

The beautiful green game.

In 2006, FC Zürich left the Letzigrund stadium, their home ground. The club hosted a demolition party, allowing fans to help themselves to signage, seating and turf. Kaleido Grafik documented these salvaged items to highlight the creative ways in which they have been re-used around the city, giving a second life to the old Letzigrund stadium. Published in Issue 3 of the Green Soccer Journal and online by The Guardian.
