Résumé

Complexity is out-simplicity is in. Simplicity is the hottest trend in Web design today. This book features:

The deconstruction of 24 content-rich sites with clean, simple designs-from concept to completion
Top Web designers offering their trade secrets on how to define a site's vision and streamline its message
Process-visuals illustrating navigation schemes that minimize clutter and create order

Web sites have evolved from simplistic designs with minimal content to ones that are visually and structurally jammed with content and links. We have pushed the amount of content per site to an overwhelming level and, in turn, reduced usability-and effectiveness.

Web designers now face the dual challenge of creating beautiful designs while organizing vast amounts of content into intelligible structures that users can access quickly and effortlessly. There is an art to paring down and organizing sites, and many successful designers have created steps that facilitate this process. Simple Web Sites offers insight from the best designers and deconstructs their most effective work.
