Before starting compostions of the web app and designing it I wanted to look at UI and UX that inspires me and makes me revisit the site because the experience engages me and creates enthusiasm.

Teenage engineering has a slick and easy to use interface that evokes me to visit it often as its flat design and use of mixed media like powerful photography creates enthusiasm whenever I scroll through.
Recently Ive been watching Black Mirror on netflix which is a television series created by Charlie Brooker that features speculative fiction with dark and satirical themes that examine modern society, particularly with regard to the unanticipated consequences of new technologies. The reason for this blog post is the utopian interfaces that feature throughout the series that have caught my eye, Some interfaces shout from the sides of vans, some sit flush on walls in future environments, and others ache out from within our own bodies. The one episode that stood out as a possible form of inspiration was series 2 episode one ‘Be right back’ which is about when a young man dies, his partner finds out that she can stay in touch with him by creating a virtual version of him through his online history. The interfaces that feature during the episode are subtle designs compared to other episodes but are ones that I can relate to the most, simplified flat designs are commonly used which at times look similar to many Windows interfaces that are around today.
