Good Design vs. Bad Design

By Kristie Aronow

I think good design is easy on the eyes and makes sense. This does not mean that good design has to be boring. Depending on what you're trying to draw attention to good design could involve an array of colors (Not just boring neutral black, white, and gray tones). The design of a page ultimately depends on what you're trying to sell a viewer. I think a good front page is simple and allows for easy access with no easter eggs. Inner pages (depending on subject) should all have a similar layout. Bad design basically draws your attention away from what you want the viewer to concentrate on, and may ultimately make a viewer leave the site.
