Solid agency site work coming out of Toi, based in California, Texas and Buenos Aires. Like the use of the animated gif background at the top of the home page – gives it a feel of a video, and somewhat parallax background, and may work better with the speed of the page? Not to get on a tangent – but I’m forming that in a question because if you can accomplish the look Toi did, with a 101kb animated gif, versus a video background that’s a minimum of 500kb – 5mb – then that makes this design even smarter – looks good too!

From the Designer: “We tried to create a site that would stand out for a design agency while not being over the top. Usability was a big concern and of course it is responsive. We rendered some 3D objects and created a bit of a layered feel with the minimal motion. The color scheme was chosen to match the brand… Toi!”
