Interactive webpage

When choosing an interactive website to use as an example, I immediately thought back to the Derek Hess website, which I used previously in Graphic Design. This website is used as an online portfolio off all Hess’ work, which ranges from sculpture to advertisement. The interactive side of it is pretty simple and straight forward, using links on a main menu. Each link is seen in a black rustic texture, which is surrounded by an image of his work. This menu is like this on every page and never changes, unlike the sub menu, which changes to whatever page is being viewed. For example, when you click on a heading in the main menu, it brings up a sub menu which leads you to different areas of Hess’ work.

I found this website very useful and easy to use, it really is user friendly. The design was straight forward and managed to draw your attention to the fine art the surrounded the main menu. Derek Hess’ website is a great and simple example of an interactive webpage.
