This site is a "multidisciplinary studio focusing on design for art, architecture, fashion and cultural clients worldwide", or so they say. It seems the main focus of this site is very portfolio driven. The work itself is the focus as the website itself is quite simple and barren given its structure and black and white color scheme. However when expanded it gets hard to distinguish between sections because of that lack of color. Perhaps color coding the sections would improve it and the overal aesthetic of the page? Navigation is very simple as everything is layed out before you from the beginning. Main categories of the site are in list form and the viewer has a choice to expand and contract aspects of each category to obtain the information they want and hide the stuff they don't. It keeps everything very well organized. And even when someone expands a brand new category it automatically closes the previous one to prevent someone from opening every category and creating a very messy, mega-long page. It gets the job done.

good observations/comments regarding the navigation Charles. Their interface exhibits a lot of what Edward Tufte labels as "visual noise" in the form of the dotted lines that separate the categories, but are as evenly weighted as the text.
