I always find it strange how companies that are traditionally associated with good design get the web so wrong. Another example is http://www.vitra.com , looks really well but is a complete pain to navigate.
I've noticed the same. Traditional "form & function" thinking seems to miss the concept of behavior completely. Everything looks and feels perfect at first, but as soon as you interact with anything, the attention to details drops from 100 to 0.
In Vitra's case it only took four clicks along the key paths to find a state where nothing about the navigation made sense anymore: http://www.vitra.com/en-un/home/products/wiggle-side-chair/
You end up here, according to the navigation: "Welcome to Vitra / Home / By Space / By Designer / By Space / By Designer / By Designer / By Designer / Wiggle Side Chair & Side Chair".
Not so long ago there was a discussion about the lack of Bang & Olufsen design process. Try to enjoy 3 minutes at their website, speakers on. http://www.bang-olufsen.com/ (as seen 2008-12-10)
