Term 2 - Website design introduction - 28/6/2016

Research and analyse website

The features make up a bad website :

http://www.partiesbydebi.net/

(Source : Design by http://www.partiesbydebi.net/)

http://www.theworldsworstwebsiteever.com/

( Source : Design by http://www.theworldsworstwebsiteever.com/)

My opinion about two websites :

Hard to catch main point.

A lot of images and texts ( information )

Be careful the font of text

Be careful colour and background ( ex : black and yellow )

Difficult for user reading on website.

Confusing - to much choice.

Too much animations

Too much advertising other websites ( when you click on information you needed)

Difficult to read and find information because used too much font and vivid image on each item. 

The features make up a good website :

My opinion about architecture website :

Easy to see layout and contact them

Modern can use for mobile phone

Using photography

Show the final piece ( example : sector, location and person ) - select portfolios

Show the background of company and team work ( only company)

Choose the same font of text ( specific information - main point in the website)

Simple colour

Create a website :

Website name

Using " http://www.wix.com " to create a new website

Create an account and choose a type of website :

https://www.wix.com/new/vertical?ref=myaccount

It can choose the style of portfolio:

I choose Architecture Portfolio to create my website.

In this style of portfolio, it shows the example about style and I can edit them follow to my portfolio.

( Editing follow to Architecture Template)

In my opinion, I compared Architect Template and Graphic Design Portfolio. I release Architect Temple suitable for company and architect because it will discuss and show all of information about building on Architect Template. However, Graphic Design Portfolio Template is suitable for researcher and student learning about design more than architect template because it just only discusses and shows the step of each item. Both of them are comfortable design a portfolio website for designer but I choose Graphic Design Portfolio Template because I'm a student so I will research more than work.
