So recently graduated my diploma , waiting until February to start my interactive design degree.
Unfortunately i didn't take home a lot of my school work i did during the year so i decided i'm going to start sharing some of personal work i do in my spare time to get some practice

This first piece of work is a clothing line i did for one of my summatives.

I wanted to try use black and white space without having the page feel to "empty"

My inspiration was from asos : http://www.asos.com/

Although my work didn't come out as good as theirs, i learnt a lot through the process!

Note: I do encourage any criticism from you guys, it's the only way i know how to improve. Its the one thing i really enjoyed about my tutor, she was brutally honest about what looked terrible screen
:thumbsup:

One thing i found really fun was making a filter feature without the use of js (javascript)

I didn't know i could do this with just HTML5 + CSS

"Follow us" section looks odd, makes 0 sense and aligns, it looks like you threw random enlarged icons.
"Type your email adress here..." slightly off grid, also wouldn't use that much rounded corners and probably make text bit smaller.
On third page in info section you should make more variation with font sizes and probably use 2 fonts not 1

Yeah i found it looked a bit weird after submitting actually

I also noticed my footer isn't quite centered, there seems to be a lot of aligning issues.

In the 2nd page the last divider line is shorter than the top 2 maybe keep all the lines the same width like you have on the 3rd page

Thanks man, tbh school doesn't really teach you to much, besides from the tutor coming in and telling you whats wrong with it and fixes it a bit. Other than that you just learn from trying new shit

I should be posting more websites i'm doing, but i'm learning PHP atm and its doing my head in :cry:

It needs more details to make the website look more legit, even if they aren't functional, such as the 'sign in' and 'join' buttons, as well as a more detailed footer. Also, add some space between the very bottom of the page and the footer contents. Add some negative space.

I personally think the font choices for asos are pretty terrible. So many variations, plus the main heading font used for 'This is ASOS' as well as other headings is so bad. Your usage of one font looks better and is more cohesive, but you might try introducing one other font for contrast.

The text on your banner needs completely redone. It's not legible at all with the white text on that background, even with the black drop shadow. Change the left/right arrows on to look different, because the gray looks muddy.

Fix the text of some of the shirt names, because they're extending too far in the other columns.

Consider using subtle red accents in places if you plan on using it to highlight which page you're on in the main navigation. It would help headings pop too, or at least bold some things.

Great job learning the functionality of everything, but the design side needs some refinement.
