Globrix is a property search site in the UK. The interface clearly distinguishes between rental and purchase searches using a typographical, verb-orientated call to action. Search dominates and when the user begins to enter their postcode (c.f. zipcode) this autocompletes. The search interface also presents contextual help and popular search data to assist the user and can cope with multiple address data types (street, town, region etc.). A criticism of this interface is that it is presented to returning visitors even though they may have a registered account with saved searches and would therefore wish to bypass this initia search dialogue.
