Been working really hard on the redesign for the homepage. It’s taking way longer than I though, but the time spent is very much worth it. I’m trying to use every bit of what I’ve learned in the web development world and make it all work together. Today’s sample is taken from the new navigation.
In keeping with my whole whitespace movement, I wanted to leave things as simple as possible. So everything is real clean with a focus on the typography. The little snail on the left is the icon for the homepage. Since I decided to not go with a traditional layout (branding logo on the upper right, navigation to the left and underneath), the little snail functions as a sort of branding and link back home. That will help on the following pages when we get further and further away from the front page.
Hope to have the finished product for you all by next week. Don’t want to give you anything less than that, though.
