Billy Blue College of Design

This website is for Billy Blue College of Design. I think this site breaks all the rules for navigation. The links are in a huge font size, bright color, and they move depending on which one you click on. I think that works fine on this site, being a design school, because you want to be interested in going here, but I'm not sure if I would like it on another site. I like the roll over effect on the images for the courses. The pink, black and white color choice works well, it looks very contemporary.

Mark Gowing Design

This is a site for Mark Gowing Design. It has a Swiss yet contemporary feel to it, and it definitely reminds me of Pentagram. It all stays on one page, so you don't see a quick flash of black every time you click on a link, which is good. The links 'grow' from the left to right as you progress deeper into the site. It is just so simple and clean. I also like the yellow and gray color combo.

T Magazine

This post is for T: The New York Times Style Magazine. I picked this site to change up what I usually blog about. This is not a designers portfolio. This is a website for a magazine so you can see news between issues. The reason I posted this is because i really like how the center picture stays fixed, while everything else scrolls up and down. I don't think I have seen this done before. It actually caught me off guard because I thought it was a pop-up in front of what I was scrolling. When I realized what it was I was amazed.
