Web Page Mockup Project

10awebpagemockup

Description: 

Create a web page layout using a grid.

Process (Process, tools, skills, FOCUS principles):

  1. First, I had to choose between two ideas I had regarding the webpage I wanted to create. I decided to choose the same business I used in the Business Identity Project.
  2. Then, I started sketching ideas for the website layout. draft
  3. Next, I went to photoshop to create a shape map of my idea. I felt that my initial idea was too minimalistic to attach to my brand, so I added a more professional look.10ashapemap
  4. Then, I started on my actual web page mockup page. I inserted title, logo, menu items, thumbnails of photography, and footer information.
  5. My final project ended up differently than I had originally intended as I added more images and different alignment of the tab text.

Critique:

I received feedback from Danielle Esplin. She suggested I arrange the featured photos so that the spacing was more uniform. She also suggested that I move the menu text onto two lines rather than three and to also move the social media icons below them.

  1. I thought you did a great job creating white space through out the web page. Everything looks neatly spaced and that is a uge strength in your web page. One thing I would change is put everything in the top right corner somewhere else, usually it fits best on the bottom of the page but you could do somewhere else and that would work too.

  2. You’ve got a striking design there, Kayla. The muted dark colors are easy to read, while at the same time they contrast well with the brighter photographs. It’s a simple design, to be sure, but that’s not a bad thing. Plenty of white space and good font choice make it good enough for anyone.
