Our New Website Design

Our website has been newly designed.  We worked really hard at it, to make sure we don't clutter it, but at the same time we need to be informative, and attractive.

Here are a few pointers/things to consider when re-designing your website/what we've learned:
  • Search should be clearly seen and visible, especially on sites which have a lot of information.
  • Put in as much 'white space' as possible, because this helps the site to be breathable.  So when the user looks at the site, its not congested.
  • Use different fonts for different titles, to let the user know that this is different.
  • Highlight items that you want users to pay attention to.
  • Use good quality pictures.  This really makes or breaks the site... poor quality pictures gives an unprofessional look; looks cheap and doesn't look attractive.
  • Use different layouts of sections so each thing looks different and unique.

We really enjoyed working with our professional designers, and website analysts.  It gave us a whole new prespective on what we want for our website.

Here is our redesigned, revamped, refurbished website!

Inspiration is what we need every step of our way, whatever we choose to do...
 
We can get inspiration from everything we see, feel, touch and hear.
