  • BOOKAPP - NEXT STEPS (Client News)

    Bookapp is now evolving in two kinds of services:

    Corporate Apps are based on custom made readers, with many client specific features in an immersive environment; these apps give a measurable visibility and audience to existing content and product.

    Kiosk Apps based on a reader dedicated to large corpus of existing document such as magazine, books and guides collection, etc. Special features such as a fast full body research, in-app purchase product and page preview, offer a totally new perspective on how we interact with large amount of document.





  • TWEETBOOK (BB News)

    Tweetbook : autobiographie express imprimable à la demande

    Présentationdans l’exposition Objet(s) numérique qui ouvre aujourd’hui au Lieu du Design à Paris, un nouveau service proposé par Bookapp.com : La production automatisée d’un « Tweetbook » en impression à la demande.

     

    Le Tweetbook est un livre produit à partir de l’ensemble des « tweets » d’une personne sur une période donnée. Il rassemble ainsi un matériel biographique déjà produit, donnant une dimension documentaire à un flux de micro messages. Pour créer son Tweetbook l’auteur entre les identifiants de son compte Twitter sur une borne interactive. Celui-ci est ensuite produit de manière automatique.  Le livre correspondant peut-être reçu gratuitement par email ou  imprimé à la demande sous la forme d’un véritable livre, une sorte d’autobiographie express.

    Dans un premier temps, ce type de Tweetbook peut apparaître comme une représentation curieuse de nos vies numériques

    Mais ceux qui le souhaitent peuvent utiliser le dispositif de manière plus créative, en créant un compte Twitter particulier que leur servira à écrire de un Tweetbook spécifique ou en produisant le Tweetbook correspondant à des Tweets d’objets connectés.

    Ce projet explore les aspects formels et fonctionnels de ce nouveau type de livres: typographie et mise en page adaptées, mise en avant des tweets les plus retweetés, index des destinataires et des hashtags, graphes montrant l’évolution du nombre de tweets mois après mois.

     



  • NESTLE - CORPORATE IPAD APP AND USE OF BOOKAPP FORMAT (Client News)

    In partnership with OZWE, we are very proud to launch the new corporate Ipad app for Nestlé International.

    This app is both a news and a document reader, capable of displaying various feeds from Nestle.com in a full branded environment. It can also display full annual reports with enhanced reading capabilities using the latest version of our bookapp format.

    Among other features, each page is searchable, can be shared and viewed in a single column that keeps the rigorous graphic design layout. Parsimonious animations keep the page lively and underline the content whereas contextual zoom eases the reading of texts blocks and spreadsheets.

    But, as designers, we think that the best improvement in this new generation app is the graphic part. We wanted to be close to the quality of the print applications and thanks to the evolution of our bookapp format, we were able to control accurately the graphic elements and to respect the brand guidelines of our prestigious client.

    The app is free and available on the AppStore.





  • LIFT CONFERENCE 2011 (Client News)

    For the 11th time, Bread & Butter build
    the identity, organised the experience space
    and designed the visuals for Lift conference.
    From stage design to program layout,
    the difficulty is always to keep the line
    and stay consistent without being too invasive.

    But most of all, we wanted the participants
    to be at ease to interact and circulate smoothly.
    We made two eye catchers, one inside
    the conference room, using a round screen
    with a slowmo animation, and the other one
    in the experience room, with the installation
    of huge cardboard letters, incitating people
    to take pictures and therefore to share
    the conference's image.
