Design your way

Thursday, June 11, 2015

When one is designing a web page it is often difficult to pick the best color scheme to fit the page and the ideas that are to be expressed. Many color palettes used in web design can be too loud and abruptly off putting.

If the color scheme is ineffective, it will undoubtedly fail at conveying the ideas the designer attempted to express when they designed the website in the first place. Subsequently an alternative to risking this failure is to try your luck with black and white website design. Many may feel that the lack of vibrant color will deter the visitor from continuing their research of the site.

However using a black and white background provides a great contrast to the text. The reader is no longer distracted by the vibrant colors and can focus entirely on the content of the website. The content becomes the main concentration of the entire website.

The web designer is not faced with the challenge of picking the correct colors when designing the website by choosing black and white however, they are still faced with the challenge of providing great content and other visual design factors that cannot be helped through the use of color.

Since the designer is unable to use color as an aide, he or she is challenged to improve their design skills by being forced to look to other creative ways to improve the website design. This in turn makes the designer a greater designer in the long run. These websites below show how using black and white as a color scheme can greatly improve your website. Here are the coolest black and white websites as an inspiration.
