Project Overview
SeaState Marine is a provider of advanced composite technology and sustainable marine engineering solutions, specialising in marine vessels and industrial applications. Flash Point delivered a brand-forward, single-page web experience that matches the company’s positioning — combining cinematic media and interactive 3D to present engineering work that is normally hard to convey online.
Business Objective
Translate a highly technical, physical-product business into a digital experience that feels innovative and premium — establishing credibility with clients and partners, showcasing capabilities and vessels interactively, and capturing enquiries.
Challenges
- Communicate advanced, sustainable engineering credibility through design and interaction, not just copy.
- Present physical products — vessels and composite components — compellingly in the browser.
- Deliver a premium, cinematic feel while keeping rich video and 3D media performant.
- Build a distinctive brand experience that stands apart from template corporate sites.
Solution Delivered
Flash Point built a fast React single-page application with a full-screen cinematic video hero (with a graceful image fallback) and an interactive 3D model viewer powered by Google’s model-viewer, letting visitors rotate and explore vessels and composite components in the browser. The experience layers smooth scroll animations and parallax, a multi-discipline services architecture with dedicated service pages, and an expert-team showcase. Rich-media touches — medium-image zoom, a modal video player and toast feedback — add polish, while a PWA manifest, OpenGraph/Twitter cards and Cloudflare delivery support performance and shareability.
UI / UX Highlights
- A dark, cinematic visual language (black base) that signals premium engineering.
- A centred-logo video hero that establishes the brand within the first second.
- Interactive 3D as the centrepiece — engaging visitors beyond static imagery.
- Smooth scroll, parallax and modal interactions that reward exploration.
- Bold, sectioned services and team layouts that read clearly on any device.
Responsive Experience
A responsive, grid-based layout with a PWA manifest and mobile-optimised viewport, so the cinematic hero, 3D viewer and content sections adapt across phones, tablets and desktop.
Technical Highlights
- React single-page application for fast, app-like navigation.
- @google/model-viewer 4.0 for interactive, web-native 3D model viewing.
- Video-background hero with fallback, plus image-zoom, modal video and toast libraries.
- Scroll/parallax animation controller for motion design.
- PWA manifest, OpenGraph & Twitter metadata, and Cloudflare delivery for performance and sharing.
