Other page drawings

In conjunction to the landing page, further sketches were developed in which showcase different ways in which the pages may be formatted. The 'about' page was initially highlighted, with the main influence being that purely of text. As it was decided upon within the landing strip that a line would run down the centre of the page, this was included within the sketches. This again promoting continuity. As the landing page had centred typography, this again was explored within the sketches, number 7 being a prime example of this. As within the landing page it is only the titles in which are centralised, this could be further explored. Design number 3 promotes a way in which this idea may be formatted. This in turn allowing more of the page to be explored, thus exploring a more visually impactive design. 

Ways in which the 'members' page may be laid out was also explored. As this page's main focus is to promote the female design work it was debated whether imagery should be placed upon this page. I personally decided that this would not be effective as it would cause mass images to appear on one page, at a small scale. This was highlighted as confusing by the consumer when I conducted primary research. Instead it was decided that the names would be placed upon this page, and the consumer could choose which artist to select, and have a closer look at their design work. This therefore promoting that although a part of the collective, the members work is highly different. 

Some designs explored the running theme of the lines again, this linking to the previous pages. One design in which stood out to myself the most was completing the names in a similar way to which the logo has been developed. In turn promoting the idea that it is the creatives who build the collective. This will be explored with further using CAD. 

The contact page and blog were then outlined. Again the running theme of the central line was mimicked. The structure of the contact page was somewhat difficult to explore, as I was unsure upon whether a typical feedback box should be expressed. When thinking about an older generation and technology it was found that they do not like it when technology changes and adapts. As a result of this it has been decided that a 'generic' box should be put in place so that the consumer feels comfortable leaving comments.

The layout of the blog was extensively explored. With postmodern trends attempting to be highlighted. I felt that as the blog was a formal matter it was very difficult to make this postmodern and thus simple designs were focused upon to allow updates to be easily added. Following on from previous designs, a title was centralised, with text and images appearing either side. Example 6 being a key example of this.

In order to ensure all designs work well alongside each other wireframes will be developed.
