Graphic Designs

Background

ONE/Northwest uses the content management system Plone for its websites. Here is some background on how we approach our sites.

Graphic deliverables

We prefer that the final product be a Photoshop psd with certain required elements.

The Design Cycle

There is usually some back and forth between the designer and ONE/Northwest to ensure that the design is within scope and that it meets usability guidelines.

About designing for the web

Designing for the web is very different from designing for print. People read web sites very differently from how they read printed materials -- most important, they skim content. It's important to make sure that design elements help them find the content they care most about and not impede usability.
