Project 2 Research: Good Web Design

http://www.essentialvermeer.com/

I like the basic layout of this website. The colors are plain, but not in a boring way. I think this is a good example of simple design that still has visual interest.

I really liked the combination of imagery and colors used. It immediately drew me in and made me want to look into what this gallery has to offer.

This is one of my favorites. The logo alone immediately caught my attention. This webpage flows very well and is very successful in both layout and overall design.

This one is a more contemporary design. I love the overlapping panels. I think that this type of design definitely stands out more so than the other ones I have looked at.

This is another website that stood out to me because of its unique design. Its not something I would have thought to do, but its definitely eye catching. I also think its very interesting to see the variety in web design from gallery to gallery.

RESUME Caitlin Wright marcheschicm@gmail.com 703-371-0182 James Madison University Harrisonburg, VA Senior, Studio Art Major Graphic Design Concentration Born May 27, 1990 Age 21 Skillz Technical Mac OS X Photoshop CS5 Illustrator CS5 InDesign CS5 Microsoft Office Design Ad Design Logo and Identity Design Layout Design Photo Retouching Typography Computer and Hand Illustration Banner Design Media Design © marcheschicm@gmail.com   I grew up in Northern Virginia, just outside of Washington DC. I went to high school in Alexandria, VA at Bishop Ireton High School.I graduated in 2008 and started JMU classes in the fall. Starting out, I was a business major, but quickly switched over to art. I love design and all that comes with it. I am passionate, hard working, and always ready and eager to learn. In my spare time,I love cooking and baking or snuggling up with my puppy to a good movie.

This email stood out to me because of the simplistic and modern design. I also like the depth this design exemplifies. The advertisement itself has a 'floating' feel to it.

 This design was just fun to me. I love the colors and the layout that immediately draws me in. Its well organized and really cute....which gives off that valentines day feel.

I loved the color scheme and layout of this design. Its not too busy and still has visual interest.

I thought that this design was just cute. The little creature animations and pictures drew me in. I'm a sucker for cute.

This was one of my favorite designs. I love how the greyscale works and the cleanliness of this design makes it incredibly easy to look at.

These 2 designs were done by the same person. I enjoyed the fist email because of the image placement and how it worked with the information it was conveying. When I tried to click on the email to find the webpage, it brought me to the image of the hands and the message that the site it under construction. I loved the design for that as well and thought I would include it in the blog.

I loved this layout for a few reason. It provides a lot of information without clutter and is very clean and simple. It made me feel like the food they were advertising would be clean and simple to...which is always a good thing when it comes to food. I felt that the message they were trying to send was elegantly done and a great success. 

I seem to have a thing for design that includes clean images on a white background. This example was yet another simplistic design that drew me in because of how clean and well crafted it was. I also love the limited color scheme.

This one attracted my attention because of the fun colors and design incorporated in. The colors and texture are not too loud and is well distributed.
