Additional Suppporting Evidence
Context and Theory
This is my essay analysing why I think these websites may or may not be good examples of using design theories as well as easy to navigate websites. I chose two portfolio websites as that is what I, myself am working on.

This is a gallery of my PowerPoint reflection on why WIX is a suitable website designer we can use to make our websites to our full potential.
Idea's development
Moodboards and Summary
To the left are my 4 mood boards with my initial idea's on how to upgrade my functionality and design of my website. Initially when we started this project I was under the impression that my website was easy to use and a good representation of what I could do. Since having read the brief I’ve come to the conclusion that my website is far from what I thought it was. My home page is completely irrelevant to any of my work as well as my projects page being messy and hard to use - too many unusable buttons and it feels too cluttered. I am to improve my navigation using back buttons, which are fundamental to every website as well as completely changing my home page to a design which encapsulates my artistic potential - adding screenshots of my different projects to the homepage, which are clickable and take you to my pre/post/ production pages for that specific project. My journals page needs huge improvements, adding them all onto one page, or at least into the different terms. I also think I should change the page colour to white rather than black as I think it’s more minimalistic and easy to read like a document. My website feels more dysfunctional and design heavy, so to amend this, I plan to keep to the design theory of Form Follows Function.
