Consideration for creating a better interface website.

During the research stage, i do some research on how to create better user interface. Base on 99designs (Designer Blog The Creative Edge) it show the top 10 web design trends in 2014 which i also agree on the selection.

1. Flat design thrives
2. Responsive design is a must
3. Websites showcase better images
4. Parallax websites grow in popularity
5. Infographics remain the best way of representing data
6. Typography takes center stage
7. Websites simplify and focus on content
8. Short presentation videos re-emerge
9. Newsletter designs continue to improve
10. Fixed navigations gets lots of love

Base on the list the are some point that i feel is very important and relevant to my portfolio design. And there are similarity to what i collect during the previous research.

Parallax scrolling

Parallax design achieves that successfully with its scrolling mischief, powerful imagery, and strong and creative typography.

Short presentation videos

The six seconds videos are more likely to go viral, they're easy to make and everybody seems to love them. In the last few years, we’ve seen a constant shortening of videos and this upcoming year will promote under 30 second clips to get the point across.

Fixed Navigation

When dealing with a content heavy website, then a fixed position sidebar or top menu will be the logical approach.

Perfectly view in different browser

Smartphones and tablets are huge marketing potential, we need plan ahead for mobile sites and responsive website is the solution to it.
