This assignment was to redesign Jakob Nielsen's USEIT.com web site using CSS and web standards. The goal was to create a more aesthetically pleasing site design, while, at the same time, maintaining or improving upon the useability of the existing site. The original site is www.useit.com.
As "usability" is a very important factor for this client, Jacob Nielsen, I tried to keep this concept in mind by contrasting a clear font against a darker coloured font set upon a paler background colour with pale fonts emerging from the darker background. I also used an appealing line-height and good font size to make good use of the white space and to create a better readability. These stratergy helped to create a more aesthetically pleasing site design.
