I have to share this wonderful example of creativity, done by Oddly Art Director Zad. This is a great example of adding joy to a navigation system. Try it, you’ll see what I mean quite quickly. Why is it so fun to just roll up and down with the mouse on it?

This piece is a very nice example of metaphor that results in a high level of affordance. It seems very natural to extend the idea of houses as places we organize our things, our lives, ourselves! Could we pull the layers out, one by one, and examine them?

Enjoy!
