Both the logo and the illustrations are drawing inspiration from wavelength graphs, since a lot of the company's products are measuring and then processing such data. ## Website When it came to designing the website, the issue was that the products of etosis mostly aren't customer facing, meaning they have abstract interfaces and applications. Therefore we had no real imagery to use, and we wanted to refrain from using overly generic photos also. So I developed simplistic vector-based animations for each product that make the site interactive and interesting, even though the subject matter is rather dry. The website was built in [Eleventy](https://www.11ty.dev/), a static site generator. The animations were created as SVGs and then animated with Javascript. Live Site
