I chose everylastdrop.co.uk for my web site . This site talks about how much water a person uses each day in the United Nations. I chose this site because I liked the graphics that were used to make it as well as the use of colors. This site took a lot of work to put together and took great skill to get it to transition the way it does.
Navigation of the site is preatty easy as the site helps to show witch way to move and how far you have to move. Having to scrolly down is also a big help as it helps to display the information and point that the site tries to get across. The site also makes great use of transitions of the pictures on the site and how they move from one topic to another. I also liked how the bottom of the site is organized and displays information about more info on the site as well as a quick link back to the top.
I noticed a theme to the color that is used for this site. I noticed that I used the same combination of color scheme throught the site. The site seams to use an analogous scheme as the colors seam ajacent to one another and you can tell the difference between the colors. The site also uses the use of colors that are close to comparison as when we see lighter shades of blue, green or even pink. This site seams to use this color style for the purpose of displaying texture and the design of shapes that are in the site. The similar colors in a way are prehaps used to show tints on glass, the shadow that is cast by the sun, or the outline for certain shapes. What I find most amazing about the color of the site is that the color seems to change to another color right before our eyes and with little jumps. It makes the transitions seem less real and less fake.
The texture and shapes that are used in this site are pretty standard, but are important to point out. I like how many objects share the same kind of shape but can still be told apart. I also like how it uses a combination of geometric and freeform shapes in unity and displays the picture. The depth and volume of the site is however maybe a little too flat. All of the images that we see on the site appear to be flat and we can’t seem to tell the difference with the space between objects. I do like the way that we see a man going through his daily routine. The rythm and flow he goes through is very straight forward and doesn’t skip a beat or get off track. Minimal texture use seems to work well for the site but I think that maybe just a little might be good at bring out more detail of things so we understand them more.
