New year, new colour palette
I have decided to go minimalist for my website, well, not too minimalist as I am still a lover of bright colours (see i-dent graphic above).
The compromise was a move away from a dark background and keeping the colour palette simple and clean. I have managed to incorporate my most favourite colour of the moment though, teal.
I have always admired strong use of typography in design and would like to explore this in more detail in the coming new year. I have found myself drawn towards illustrations and graphics and have been enjoying reading Smashing Magazine, an online resource for designers. They held a Typographic Layout Design Contest with one of the prizes being a copy of The Typographic Desk Reference “a quick reference guide of typographic terms and classification with definitions of form and usage for Latin based writing systems”.
I really really want one. Does this make me a book-spotter?
Love the new look – agree with you on the teal, one of my favourites too!
The teal looks great in the sparklingly clean site! Hope Santa remembers to bring you the TDR book ….
The site looks fab! Teal rocks!!! V stylish 😀
I am liking it a lot
