3 New Website Designs

Posted by Ed Nailor in Websites on Mar 9th, 2010 | 0 comments

I wanted to share a couple website designs I have been working on. You may notice that these are designed specifically with the real estate market in mind, but in many cases they could be adapted to a different industry if needed.

Currently, these designs have not been placed on anyone’s website. They were creative exercises for myself. However, they are available for purchase if you may be interested. Simply contact me with a request and we can work out the details.

The Homestead Design

The Concept

A nice home with a lush green lawn, using the lawn area as the backdrop of the website content. Using a combination of bright colors with earth tones and textures creates a lively, rich and inviting website. The dark textured background allows the design of the site and the content to stand out on the page!

Suitable Uses

Ideally suited home related websites and services, such as:

real estate agents
mortgage loan officers / lenders
home repair services

The Thompson Design

The Thomspon Design

The Concept

Light, clean and sharp. While this design seems to embody these design elements, it still projects both a friendly and professional look and feel.

Suitable Uses

This website is very versatile and can be used for a wide variety of websites. While the design is shown with the example of a real estate website, this can be adapted to virtually any professional service.

Special Notes

When used as a real estate website, pay special attention to the ever-present property search bar located just under the header image.

The Vineyard Design

The Concept

With this stylish and contemporary design, the dark background makes the white body just pop off the screen. The Vineyard was designed to employ a vertical navigation system that hovers over an attractive header image. The use of white on black, with varied shades of gray give great contrast, yet bring the entire site together in a very nice way. This is not your typical black and white look!

Suitable Uses

Again, this one is using real estate as an example, but this can easily be adapted to virtually any website need.

Special Notes

While the image shown here makes the website design appear narrow, this is a bit misleading. The design itself spreads across 1000 pixels, making for a nice wide area to work in. The site design was intentionally a bit longer to allow me to showcase both a home search and featured home within the left sidebar typically sought in a real estate design.

So there you have it. 3 new designs by your’s truly. Any thoughts?
