Mark Bowden/Guests of the Ayatollah Website


From my tenure at Funny Garbage, for client Atlantic Monthly Press, design of two websites based on author Mark Bowden's literary work on the subject of Iran.
Atlantic Monthly approached us with an unusual brief. They wanted a site that promoted their authors new book (by their sister company Grove Atlantic) and offered a taste of its contents but they also wanted to republish, via the web, his article on the same topic that would incorporate images and maps from the original magazine layout and also would include video clips from an upcoming Discovery Channel documentary. As the art director, I worked closely with a producer, 2 programmers, and a production designer to meet tight deadlines.
