What makes good website design

 What makes good website design:

Simple; almost difficult to do, from hope page of website must be easy to read and search, might possible be good to have 5-7 links off the home page that go into detail. all pages should have the same look and feel to them, best to have same theme,color, and style. the website must have either a page or at the bottom of the home page or on a separate page a good website must have contact information, copy right information, privacy policy. the content on the pages must address an audience, have purpose, and the content must patch these things and be organized, spell checked, current, and appropriate.
YouTube and Pintrest are simple very common websites, because they follow these rules almost to the t.. they are simple with many lings leading to the correct page you need, not overwhelming on one single page, they have privacy policy, and up to date.

COFFEE package design

This design was fun and interesting to play with it looks like its for the holidays, maybe it could be used for the holidays. i wanted simple and reusable i came up with a burlap bag that would have a plastic bag on the inside. my intentions were to have the plastic bag on the inside to be able to be pulled out easily and the burlap bag be reused. now my actual design didn't work out as well as planned the material was harder to work with and the print did not want to stick to the burlap. and decided last minute to make it look like the labels were stitched to the burlap. and the burlap was definitely a hard material to control than i though it would be.

designing for needs


If i decided to design for needs not wants, i would like to help design for charities and auctions that supported raising money for the people. i would like to be designing products that help out the people as a whole. not just individual companies wanting to design something to help support their own desires. right now i my projects that i am designing is simple and helping out the people as a whole with healthy food ideas, people need to eat more healthy food than junk food, yes i understand junk food is delicious but its not natural for the human body to digest so much of it. if i was able to focus on designing projects just for needs i would definitely focus on the greater health of people.

Poster / billboard


i have had lots of trouble with the poster design. but this is what i have came up with. all illustrated. i wanted the poster to look more realistic, but i like the idea of fruit in a popcorn bucket very absurd. the film wrapping around the popcorn shows that its about the movies, and with fruit shows the program is about eating healthier in outings. and the logo on the bottom.THis poster is supposed to be large enough to stand out in the movie theater lobby and attract attention to the healthy snack food stand. The idea was to be ironic with the popcorn bucket with healthy food in it. if this actually became a program i would like a series of these with different fruits and healthy snacks.
