A website is never ready. It is subject to constant change, it is a resonant body of the technical status quo and a living projection of the authors. Endless scrolling, depending on the individual daily form.
Unlike other areas of visual culture where manifestation of form is sought and visual decisions are clear, there is only temporary authorship online – until the next update.
The desire for obvious decisions meets systemic factors and comes back as an unmanageable potpourri of possibilities. Analogous to the physical model of the double pendulum, the development of a website is a chaotic process – a steady balancing of seemingly unlimited possibilities.

Collaborating since 2011 and located between Berlin and Leipzig, Knoth & Renner focus on projects for art, architecture and science institutions. Based on a deep appreciation for digital culture and technology, the studio’s interdisciplinary portfolio includes websites, publications, exhibition graphics, visual identities and apps.
