Client Project 98% -Done.

i have pretty much finished my client for this term and i am pleased with the way it has turned out , although i decided to change the layout of the website halfway into this process, but i believe it does meet my own personal brief of having a clean simple website.  below are zoomed out screenshots of the website , and don't take notice of the coloured boxes ,as i am in the process of  creating logo's and finding good quality pictures for the staff pages.

Below are the four main pages of the website , with four more pages within the staff page , the home page kind of resembles back to the old wire frame i did back last month of having two main containers side by side with each other , but instead of having a mission statement , i decided to have the navigation there.  I believe this create an instant calmness , putting the user at ease , rather an bombarding them information on the page.

I have learned from the mistakes of the last solo project i did , and stupidly not having the HTML page in HTML 5 , ALL the pages are up the HTML 5 and CSS3 Standard. i will be validating the pages on Thursday evening 





below are the responsive pages , i have used media queries in order to make it responsive and i have only made it responsive for the Ipad only and not any smartphone devices , the reasoning behind this is because the type of people viewing this website will not be casually browsing via a mobile device such as the iPhone or android , which most people do from a smartphone device 




i will adding finishing touches here and there to really make the website good ,but the bulk of it has been finished.

New Portfolio Website -

Just in case , you haven't seen the theme for my website , there it is , still a LONG way from being ready , hoping ready to launch in the new year.

The reason why i am showing this i, is because i wanted to demonstrate the flow and cohesion between my website , my context 3 images and my business cards (when they get made) so when the final exhibition comes along , the will be a grand design.

Context 3 Images - 8BIT Wonder

Below are some of my context three images , as you can see , i have gone with a 8it classic NES style to portray my abilities and skills , the reason why have chosen this type of design , is apart from being a devoted gamer , the design fits in with the design of my new website which should be launching in the new year. Enjoy.







i still haven't finished two of the images , and the responsive design image still needs work , you get the idea that am going for, vintage gaming and vintage look.

Coding Development - ATRG


                                                               
As you can see , I have decided to change the layout of the website , the reason being I wanted to feel more of the empty space surrounding the main body wrappe

Coding Development - ATRG



So I began coding today , basing my wire-frame on the designs that I did previously but as I began coding the website there was something wrong with the feel of the site, it seemed empty , maybe this feeling will pass on, but at the moment I can’t shake the feeling that there is too much negative space.

Wireframe Development - ATRG



I have also been developing the wireframes of the site , to see which one is best suited for this client project , I think the key to this is brief is to keep it simple , the type of user that will access the site , will not want to play around with an over developed interface.  




i have tired to implement my logo designs to the prototypes aswell.
