Websites Inspiration

We visited a number of websites, searching for aspects of other existing websites that we would like to transfer into our own website. Below are some of our findings.


David Bowie

We liked the extensive use of pictures on this website. Due to the diverse range of styles and alter-egos Bowie has embodied, the wide range of colours used is perhaps deliberate, as to not 'tie him down' as one brand. For our own website, a clear colour scheme would be used to create a clear, structured branding.

Dan Croll

This website is completely characteristic of an artist that is all about the music - something we also want to get across on our website. We like the very simple menu and clear branding, especially of his new album.

Daughter

I like the simple but effective layout on this website. The large focal image immediately sets the band as one not too much about image but one about the music.

The 1975

I love the really strong branding on this website as it ties in synergistically with the band's black & white colour scheme which features across many aspects of their work. The use of images is also something we may like to emulate in our own website.

Red Hot Chili Peppers

The focal image on the home page of this website is very striking and promotes their new album. We also like the way the background changes as you hover over different titles in the menu bar. The use of space is very interesting on this website, as they do not attempt to use it all, and leave many parts of pages blank.
