Simple, beautiful websites.
Posted in Design, Process, User ExperienceIt may sound strange, but one of our goals at Inovat this year will be to focus on building simple, beautiful websites. Why? Not because simple is always better, in fact, sometimes simple doesn’t cut it. Not because we cannot do complex, see PlanetEarthPlay.com. Because simple, we think, is typically better for our clients.
Why is simple better for our clients? Because our clients hire us to build them a website that does something. That something could be a user purchasing a t-shirt or joining a mailing list. It could also be a user simply finding out more information about our client.
A simple navigational structure is easy to navigate. A simple cms is easy to update. Most importantly, a simple website doesn’t get in the user’s way.

That’s the route I decided to go for my portfolio. I mean, big and flashy with fancy effects is nice and all, but I can get the same message across and probably more effectively with less.
On another note, you guys have a nice site here! I’m redesigning mine at the moment.
