Website Brief
10 - Crucial Elements
Space
-
-
-
-
amount of space between lines in a paragraph should be the same, as should the amount of wrap around images.
-
lack of elements, and could equally be a background colour or a texture.
How To Use It: Start with key elements such as navigation menus, for example. Make sure elements are organized in a way that includes set spacing between elements. This will make each button or word stand out more clearly on its own.
Simple Navigation
-
Sites with parallax scrolling, for example, often include directional arrows to make the site more user friendly
-
How To Use It: Use simple navigation as the framework for your website build. Remember users want a few key things from navigation: knowledge of where they are on the site, a way to go back (or home), and directions (if your site has an unusual or more complicated interface).
About Us
should tell users who you are and what you do. It can outline company philosophies or goals or how the site came to be
-
-
-
How To Use It: Use the About Us page to give your brand a little personality. Consider including photos of your team and a short company biography.

Contact Information
appears in one of two ways – in the header / main navigation, or as a Contact Us page with a form or expanded information.
-
-
How To Use It: Add contact information to all static headers and/or footers. If you have a physical business address, include location information. Consider a contact form so users can email directly from the website.
-
Search
-
-
If you use an icon for search, there’s no need to invent something new; use the standard magnifying glass.
How To Use It: Design a simple box that lives at the top of your website for search. The top right corner is the most popular location, using that space is expected and easy for users to find.
Informational Footer
How To Use It: Some of the best footers combine many of the above elements. The footer is often a repeat of elements found elsewhere (such as adding search to the top of the page in the main navigation and again in the footer). It can also introduce some of the above elements and house them if there is no other logical location in the design scheme.
Style for Buttons
-
They should have the same shape, design effects and feel regardless of purpose or location.
-
How To Use It: Develop a set of buttons unique to your site. Create a consistent color theme – every button is a single hue – or overall style, such as shape or texture.
Great Images
-
-
How To Use It: Hire a photographer or illustrator to develop and create a great set of images for your site. Rely on custom images rather than stock images for a unique visual experience.
Web Fonts
-
-
How To Use It: Start with a service such as Google Web Fonts, which is free, to implement a set of beautiful and interesting typefaces into your site design without having to spend a fortune on licensing, or worry about compatibility issues.
