this is a college website and information is more important than pictures, which took up half a page
lay-out spanned a whole wide screen which may cause viewers to lose focus
combination of purple and biege color gave us a feeling of more being an online shopping centre
integration of too much illustration made it difficult to identify the focal point
Why Bad Design?
the figure of the picture would most likely be the wide banner of the picture instead of the school’s info
irrelevant links such as “Make a Gift”
log in option is placed on the right hand side
Emphasis of the pages seemed to be on the main bannered picture, which should not be the case
very minimal information of the college is provided
Why Bad Design?
the pages within each headings were not uniform in layout and design
website is not economic as updates would almost definitely include changing the banner (since it’s the focal point), which cost a considerable amount of resources
this page looked like one solely to advertise the school in first glance, however it is not
attempted to provide school information but not effective due to layout
How not Bad Design?
shorten the width of the whole website
relocate the log in panel to the left
simplify color scheme to include just purple and white
add in borders to classify each section
try to use only one main picture or illustration to bring the essence of the college
remove unnecessary or irrelevant headings
include more information such as module summaries and such
