Rejected! - Website.

This was an attempt at a monochromatic pixelly design for the french version of idée's website, submitted and rejected circa 2000. My eyes loved the sharp edges and tiny little high-contrast details.

As you can see from the final result, there was quite a lot of discussion indeed.
