Faust

SoundsuitShop / SoundSuitShop.com Website

SoundSuitShop.com is an arresting website designed by Faust for longtime client and recent business partner Nick Cave. A handful of successful creative collaborations between Faust and Cave germinated into an idea to create a curious line of affordable product featuring the work of Cave and designed by Faust. Part commerce, part communication, part spectacle, the site is intended to make more widely visible and accessible the work of this internationally collected and followed self-described "trans-artist." The site conveys the complexity, diversity and scale of Cave's Soundsuits as well as the intrigue of his performance and installations. A component of SoundSuitShop.com is the Pop-Up Shop—temporary retail environments created in tandem with exhibitions and events related to the work of Cave. Faust and Cave have worked together not only on the development of the website but also on the development of a product line which includes books, iron-ons, t-shirts, magnets and wrapping paper; the line will expand to include limited-edition items, clothing, accessories and more. Faust provided concept planning, design development, production, developer consultation and project management relating to a comprehensive e-commerce site and a line of retail products.
