yet, your design does not reflect that at all...
The Mirror logo is cool, in theory, but the font is too 80's and the colours are way to 80's as well. Suggest you look at a different colour scheme.
On that point, the website does not reflect (excuse the pun) the use of colour or style of the logo.
The design of the site is clean and fresh, big imagery (this is nice) but I really don't undertand the idea of the overlay of a tattoo, does it have something to do with the company?
Main navigation is lacking as it's at the bottom, and gets lost, I was a bit confused on how to navigate at first. If you move it to the top of the site this will also improve SEO.
I don't really know what to critique on this site, but I think that you should re-edit up the top what you are attempting to achieve. Or go back to your brief and nut out some other ideas.
Good luck.
Hi zeev,
I checked out your site mirror group, All the pics are lovely and I really like how you designed it.
May I suggest a couple tweaks to improve it a bit?
The little red tab that displays the title on the left side of each displayed page is great, I feel though that the text needs to come up just a few points and to be opened up a bit. I think that will make all the difference.
Also the tag line under the logo, I think would be easier for the viewer a couple points bigger as well.
Lastly, I would consider a different pic than the light bulb for Graphic Design, for that symbolizes over use way more than it symbolized bright ideas. At this time and age.
For the Jeans Co pick...where are the jeans? I think the words " Jeans Co." Will look better if it contrasted (not slanted) to the tag line which should probably stay slanted to fit with the "feel"
I like the T-shirt.
If your going to put that little cartoon on the chix jeans, be sure that the character folds to her folds in the jeans. I can tell it is an overlay and it needs a bit of Photoshop.
Lastly, I think the puppies and cats are cute, and the colors are nice of the last web page. Yet, it is way too busy and confusing. I think with those pics and colors that something clean and open can be created having looked at what your past designs say.
I like the closeup background behind your logo in one the best, compared to two.
Lovely stuff.
I'm not entirely sure what I am critiquing here but I will just critique the first two images. I like the design you have going. Your logo is top notch besides maybe the coloring. The tribal markings may be a bit much but not sure. I think you also need to get across the purpose of your company better.
Very nice!
like others, not sure what you want us to look at.... in general:
I'd remove the tribal graphic that falls on top of the models face in the first two images. looks like a Mike Tyson face tattoo.
i'd use the red or grey color for the "makes you feel better" tag line in the third ad.
The graphic on the t-shirt seems a bit heavy. That's a lot of ink going on that shirt.
too much empty space around the jeans co in the fourth ad. maybe repeat the logo above and below in 1-color, very faded. The photoshop of the logo on the jeans is a little weak, but maybe just to a designer's eye. gen pub probably wouldn't know the difference.
the website is pretty crowded. typically, the logo goes in the upper left of the web page. for stylized sites, it's OK to break that mold, but for e-commerce sites, it's better to do what the consumers know.
This ad is nicely done. composition is very clear to understand.
