| The
fundamental organizing principle in Web site design
is meeting users' needs. |
| |
| Concepts
about structuring information today stem largely from
the organization of printed books and periodicals and
the library indexing and catalog systems that developed
around printed information. |
| |
| World
Wide Web pages differ from books and other documents
in one crucial respect: hypertext links allow users
to access a single Web page with no preamble. For this
reason Web pages need to be more independent than pages
in a book. For example, the headers and footers of Web
pages should be more informative and elaborate than
those on printed pages. |
| |
|
The goal is to provide for the
needs of all your potential users |

The primary task of graphic design
is to create a strong, consistent visual hierarchy in
which important elements are emphasized and content
is organized logically and predictably. |
|
Graphic design is visual information
management, using the tools of page layout, typography,
and illustration to lead the reader's eye through the
page. Readers first see pages as large masses of shape
and color, with foreground elements contrasting against
the background field. Secondarily they begin to pick
out specific information, first from graphics if they
are present, and only then do they start parsing the
harder medium of text and begin to read individual words
and phrases: |

On the drawing board our graphic designer
works on home page design keeping PM’s
brief. And following internally created
basic designing principles : |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Purpose ; |
|
| |
every design element
should support site goals and as much possible
help visitors to achieve their goal.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Simple design & easy navigation
; |
|
No no to over designing. |
| |
|
 |
|
|
|
Flow ; |
|
| |
Carrying visitor's through
the document in a way that all the important
elements receive prominence. |
|
|
|
| |
We curb the inherent
tendency of designers to “design for beauty”,
rather we go for “design for function &
purpose”. We strive to create appealing
and usable/functional website.

At this point mockups are created
and presented to the client.
The selected design is then
worked on for variety of color
combinations, font sizes & types,
buttons, icons for client’s
final pick. However, we are
open to suggestions and will
do minor revisions, if required. |
