Our thoughts on web design. . .
Web design gives flight to imagination. Like broad strokes across a blank canvas, each page paints a picture. First impressions are everything. Finding the right look for a client and creating a layout that is attractive, concise, and easy-to-use are the fundamental guiding principals at SWEET SOLUTIONS.
Web design is a matter of preference. Some people love hi-tech, others love country. Some love soft pastels, others gothic or black. Still others prefer clean lines with few graphics and plenty of white space. It's all relative—what works for one person might not work for another. Choosing the right design for you is the first step to a perfect fit.
We believe websites should be unique. They should reflect the individual personality of the person, business, or organization they represent. Cookie-cutter sites are boring. They lack drama and impact. It is our differences that make us interesting, and the same can be said for websites.
What makes a website unique is presentation. This is where you shine. Little details done right make the biggest impressions. Forget about waves of special effects and dancing animation. If you must have flash, use it sparingly. The most effective designs are calm, friendly, and inviting with subtle details that add polish and interest for a pleasant browsing experience.
Focus on your site's primary purpose. What do you want people to see when they visit your site? Design and layout should enhance your content, product, or services. Navigation should be clear and easy-to-follow. Text should be necessary.
In web design, less is always more. Simplicity is elegance.
