My Design

For my design I wanted to keep it clean and neat, and simple to navigate.

I wanted to use limited colours of one or two, not so much as bright colours or pastel colours but more natural neutral colour, I find are slightly easier on the eyes when on the web/computer.

So each page is of the same layout, to keep a uniform look but also for myself with building it so that with my lack of understanding on HTML coding, that it would still be an achievable project for the time frame I have.

I wanted to keep it simple, so I added no additional icons or information, I just have the Art Design and Media logo in the top left corner and then flowing along from left to right horizontally is the navigation bar.

I kept have kept with just two colours through out the web site, black background with a white logo and white navigation bar.  

I didn't want to have a plain straight navigation bar, I felt it needed to be something different and in other web sites I noticed that shapes were a big part in navigation bars, either circles, squares or even hexagons.

I wanted to place one single image right through each page but differing from each new page.

For the home page I used an image of F block which is the heart of the art design department. I chose to put the image in black and white as it kept with my colour scheme of black and white and I felt that the image had a softness about it.

For my next page,Courses it is the same layout as the previous however the image

Changes, and I have used student work for these. I placed the text information to the right of the image so the the page would not have to be scrolled down.

My next page is timetables and calendar. This page shows the timetable for each art design and media course and in the text next to the image there is a link to the Witt website for more information on the calendars.

Student Gallery is the next page and consists of different varieties of art works from different leveled students. 

student resources is next and i continued with the black and white image, which shows one of many student computer classes. 

The What if page is a page with a variety of frequently asked questions by students, and so for this i thought id add a bit of humour and place a giant question mark in the place of one of the images.

and last is the contacts page.
