Rivet Gallery

I recently browsed through a magazine called Hi-Fructose, looking for some blog inspiration. The images are very unique and there was some wild and unusual artwork.  The magazine contains a lot of ads for art gallery shows, so I pulled up some of the art gallery websites to see if they were as artistic as the art they display.  Surprisingly, they were not.  Most of the sites I viewed were very basic and seemed dated in terms of style.  I was really expecting more bold and interactive sites, but had trouble finding them.  Finally, there was a site that caught my attention, although it pales in comparison to the artwork displayed throughout the magazine.  The site is for the Rivet Designer Toy & Art Gallery.  The logo was very interesting and forms the upper left-hand cell of a lightly bordered table.  The other thing that caught my attention was the fact that the social networking links (in the form of app-like buttons) were above the website's navigation bar, all in the same color as the logo.  This almost draws your attention away from the site information below and may be a dated style.
