Twitter Extra Credit
Our extra opportunity for Web Page Design was to start using Twitter. I’d never really understood the point of Twitter (and I’m not entirely sure I do yet). My professor said it’s a good place for networking. After playing with it for a few weeks I can definitely see that. I haven’t gotten to that […]
Project 3 —progress on studies
type I’ve narrowed the typefaces down to either: Sigmar (heading), Open Sans Condensed Light (subheading) or Helvetica (body), Helvetica (body) OR Sansita One (heading), Open Sans Condensed Light (subheading) or Helvetica (body), Helvetica (body) color I’ve also narrowed down the colors. Muted tones that look retro but they’re still fun. Here are some sites I’ve […]
2/28/13 — Week eight
We added our blogs to the Valencia Web Studio. I created an HTML page that refreshes to this URL. It basically uses a <meta> tag in the <head> and refreshes after a second. Project 3 We went over a sitemap for the Renninger’s redesign. There’s a main page then each location will basically be mini […]
Project 3 — studies
Overall I think the site should have a retro feel (referencing Renninger’s antiques and flea markets). I’m thinking more mid-20th century retro rather than Victorian antique. I’m using my Pinterest to put together some inspiration. typefaces I want a good retro font or just a nice sans serif for the headings while the body copy […]
Third project
The third project is a redesign of Renningers website. Renningers is a collection of antiques, flea, and farmer’s markets. There are two locations in Pennsylvania and two here in Florida. Their current website is…crazy. It’s definitely in need of an overhaul. Some things to work on: branding (logo, colors, typography) information organization consistent navigation hierarchy […]
2/19/13 Week seven & Project 2 — finished comps
Here’s my Process Book for the website redesign of Southwest Internal Medicine Specialists. critique We did critique after everyone ftp’d their project to the server. I did pretty well. Some feedback on my design: the header is too large, too much excess space on each side of the main navigation, maybe contain the header somehow […]
Project 2 — home page and little tweaks
I put together the homepage, added padding around the between the columns in the footer, and added horizontal rules between the bios on the doctors page.
Project 2 – more comp progress
I have the doctors page, location page, and privacy policy page done. Note — Yes, I repeated the image of the female doctor. These are just placeholders that show the size/shape and type of portrait the site should have. There is a lot of information for the privacy policy page. It took me awhile to […]
Project 2 — comp progress
I’m working on the comps. Amanda pointed out an issue with the width of my design. What would happen if the browser window widened? The green swoosh in the header and footer wouldn’t be able to extend. So I’m just putting a solid color in the background. I’m not sure which color yet. The grey […]
