01 / Web experience
CTA Inc
A mission-critical web presence for the systems-engineering firm formed by the engineers behind NASA's Viking Mars missions.
CTA engineers the systems that cannot fail: defense, intelligence, and healthcare, for agencies that cannot afford to be wrong. We treated that mandate as a dossier. Five numbered chapters, mandate through cybersecurity, every claim pinned to a record of programs, standards, and platforms, set in mono type against dark film grain.
Type does the heavy lifting. Oversized statements carry each chapter, metadata tables carry the proof, and the firm's VFusion engine is staged as a three-step pipeline: ingest, enrich, predict. The Awwwards jury recognized the site with an Honorable Mention in July 2026.
01 / The dossier
Five capability chapters, 00 through 04, each opened by an oversized statement and closed by a record: lifecycle, method, platform, standard. The hairline-ruled mono tables do the persuading, while low-lit footage of the firm's world runs full-bleed behind every chapter.
02 / The pipeline
The flagship VFusion engine plays as three full-frame stops: ingest, enrich, predict. Each stage is pinned and released in sequence with GSAP ScrollTrigger over Lenis-smoothed scroll. The same system that surfaced sepsis hours earlier in hospital studies, explained at walking pace.
03 / The ledger
Proof is typographic. Delivered programs sit in a plain ledger: a weapons-lab planning suite, federal security databases, a billion dollars of managed assets, numbered and ruled like everything else on the site. No case-study theatre; the records carry it.
