clean or confusing ?

Postby mao » Fri Nov 06, 2009 3:07 pm

Hi all,

first post here.
This is the first design i've done in years so i'm looking for some good feedback
it's mostly in dutch, but since i'm just looking for your feedback on the aesthetics that shouldn't matter to much
Is it clear or confusing?
is there too much on the page or not ?
Would you return to visit?

Not completely finished:
- the footer is still blatantly stolen from the apple.com site
- and the button is copied from campaignmonitor
so all credit to them, i still need to change that.


thanks in advance!

There is lot going on, but there is a strong structure to the site, which prevents it from becoming confusing.
The design has a definite hierarchy and structure to the layout which makes it easy to navigate through the page. The use of a clean and simple colour scheme is great, because it means that the design is not competing for attention with the content.

I normally don't like sites that cram too much content onto one page, but I really like this one. :)

At first glance, I thought "Nieuws" and "Kalendar" were buttons. The shape, dropshadow and how it floats above a bit led me to think they were? Also, I think its creating an odd negative space below the main feature. I love the feel and look. There is a lot going on page, but I don't feel overwhelmed.

I like the look of it, very trendy, lots of pictures, big text, white space. The layout towards the bottom does not seem lined up to me though.

Maybe the intent was for them not to line up, but for me personally, i like that.

Have you ever heard of

I use it, maybe its lame to some people, but it makes it easier for me to layout a site.
