OUGD404: Hierarchies task: Websites

The task is to study the layout hierarchies within different publications. By removing the most eye grabbing parts of the page one by one allows us to identify how graphic designers intend an eye to travel across the page.

This time it's webpages.

This webpage is an image based humour website and does as much as it can to dot the viewers focus all across the screen and then downwards. Nothing is meant to be fully absorbed and a lot of the content is meant to be glanced over with the full focus being on the images. Anything that is meant to be paid attention to in the brief milliseconds it will be looked at is brought forward with bright, vibrant colour. This became clearer as I slowly dissected the page, the image came first, followed by all the bright coloured links and like buttons and finally the text/rest of the content.

OUGD404: Hierarchies Task: Websites

The task is to study the layout hierarchies within different publications. By removing the most eye grabbing parts of the page one by one allows us to identify how graphic designers intend an eye to travel across the page.

This time it's webpages and this one is taken from the BBC website.The layout of this page carries the eye from top story to secondary stories and then finally to the rest of the 'lesser' content. The idea is to bring attention to the BIG stories that the webpage wants to promote, these dominate the page and take up the largest amount of space.
