It’s hard to find information on how to be a designer You can easily find loads of stuff in books or online to inspire you about beautiful graphics, and plenty of technical know-how on CSS, HTML and code. But if you want to find out how to be a web designer, structure a site that succeeds, decide on layout and craft pages that work, there are very few resources available.
Simple solutions are always the best.
The goals of each web design can vary greatly from one project to the next, but we should always strive for efficiency and simplicity. This will deliver a cleaner result that facilitates accurate communication with less margin for error. It also takes less work to make something simple than it does to make something complex. When crafting a web page, We aim to use as few -things- as I need to achieve the purpose. -Things- includes pages, words, pictures, choices, gradients, borders, boxes, graphics, columns etc. etc.. This helps make each step seem more obvious and feel easy.
This approach isn’t new. Economy has always been one of the core disciplines in Art and in Design. The Old Masters were masters of economy. Look at the brush strokes on an old painting, and you’ll see how much people achieved with so few strokes. It’s not that they didn’t have the talent, or the time, to do more strokes, it’s just that they knew that using as few strokes of the brush as possible to create the desired effect produces the best result. Using rougher strokes on areas like backgrounds or material on clothing helped the eye to focus on the finer detail.
The same goes for web design. While your mode of interaction with a web site is very different to a painting, a lot of the principles that artists have used for centuries can apply to any medium. Web designers should follow the same discipline to apply only as much detail as is necessary, putting it where it’s most needed, to manage viewers’ attention.
Our experience, along with a great passion for art and design, are the right and ideal solution to understand and meet your web requirements.
