When HTML goes well

I randomly typed into Google images creative websites so I knew I would be in for a treat. Followed one of the links and one website really stood out to me.  I ended up on the website http://www.awwwards.com that showcases the most creative and innovative websites around the web.

Goals/Overview:

The website I chose is called designembraced.com. Created by a creative/art Director and designer, Anthony Goodwin. His intentions for the website is a portfolio to broadcast work he has done for different startups, agencies and brands around the world.



Website layout:

The website is very organized, aesthetic and minimal.  He organizes his work with sub-menus to the side of the screen. Each link brings you to the different work he’s done. The layout of the menu itself is well made.


Typography:

The font is easy to read as well.  The main font in the body is a bit thin and light so it may be difficult for some to read. But, overall it’s readable.


Color Selections:

The primary colors of the site are black and white. Some font is exaggerated or bolded to separate from titles, body and menus. As far as color, the images are very bold and bright. Even the darker images stand out as well. The colors help to bring attention to the right content on the website.



 Images:

The images are absolutely stunning. They load very quickly and the quality is spectacular.  The images have a small visual effect to them that makes them glitch a little. Which lets them standout.










Navigation:

Navigating on the site first hand could be quite difficult to figure out. Once you play around a bit you’ll realize how easy it is to view content and all his work.

Layout:

The layout works well both in desktop mode and mobile. I was a bit skeptical about the mobile version considering the amount of information and visuals that the website has in general. But I was proven wrong of course. The website still flow tremendously. You would have to zoom in a bit on the mobile images. Other than that its still a clean design.
