Interface layouts

Harvested some interesting websites that each have a unique approach to their current contexts. The new trend, as you can see is all about ‘black/gray/white’ which are making a return as the favored color for contrast.

Working on a new website? Don’t go dark – do something like Toko Design. Show your best work in a one-page with a proeminent contact link.

_______

Large negative expanses (white space), simple top text navigation to projects and huge visuals to show off capabilities as This Studio did.

_______

Got to make your visitors choose between two different sections? Make sure to use as Counter-Print did, explicit text with no ambiguities.

_______

Super confident in your work? Then use merely a slideshow with easy next / previous links. Make sure clicking images takes to a more detailed section of the projects as Build did.

_______

Use large black blocks for navigation and smaller lines to create an elegant minimalist effect to seperate sections as Subtraction did.

_______

An excellent idea to put emphasis on the latest project delivered as Iain Claridge Studio did. Playing off grayscales affords a nice neutral interface.
