WW 8 - Visual Design

Visual design is about how we apply the principle of design into our web design. Here we’ll the integrations of images, colors, fonts and other elements can help to enhance the value of our website.

There are few things we need to consider in our design:

1. Colors chosen – color must meet the needs of the target user
2. Font or styles – must use sans serif i.e Verdana and Georgia
3. Graphic and multimedia – what media to add, video streaming or embedded?
4. Layout arrangement – it is can attract the user?

Anyway, we need to focus on some issue in our design

1. Choose the visual theme that aligns with web content.
2. Use template concept to make it consistent.
3. Use table or division for layout arrangement.
4. Typography

• use same font for each web page
• use sans serif
• use not more than 2 fonts per page

At the end of lecture, Dr Dayana asks each group to discuss and sketch the layout web that will be developed. We have agreed to proceed below sketches as our web layout.
