Wow that menu system is almost identical… interesting.
The huge site has been in the works for a while. The Bigspaceship site only launched recently. I can assure it was designed before anyone knew about the bigspaceship site. It does have a full screen takeover menu but that's not exactly new.
To be clear, I wasn't implying that this was a rip-off; it was more of a commentary on the popularization of these kinds of layouts and navigation systems. I think it's really lovely.
It looks extremely similar to the Odopod too. (Once you get past the scrolly stuff).
I thought the same thing too.

Very reminiscent of the new Big Spaceship site in terms of use of imagery, layout, overall interaction.
I really enjoy this trend of blurring mobile and desktop layouts—points to a brighter, more flexible future for web design IMO.
Could definitely work on load times and image optimization though.
