Option 1
The first option presents an image or textured
header with a horizontal navbar. The Index page
would offer options based upon art movements
or time periods, which the user would click to
drill down to the Art Movement Home Page
(Fig. 1.2.) The search function is presented at the
upper left under the header, with introductory
text making up the balance of the page.
The Art Movement Home Page would present
a similar horizontal navbar listing individual
artists within the movement. The left quarter
of the screen would offer short sidebar-type
information, while the remainder of the page
would provide more in-depth text.
The Individual Artist Pages would be similar in
form and content to the Art Movement Home
Pages, with sidebar information to the left and
body copy on the remainder of the screen.
Evaluation
While this model is very visually appealing,
we are concerned about the adaptability of the
horizontal navbar. Horizontal navigation can
only accept a limited number of options.

Option 1

The first option presents an image or textured

header with a horizontal navbar. The Index page

would offer options based upon art movements

or time periods, which the user would click to

drill down to the Art Movement Home Page

(Fig. 1.2.) The search function is presented at the

upper left under the header, with introductory

text making up the balance of the page.

The Art Movement Home Page would present

a similar horizontal navbar listing individual

artists within the movement. The left quarter

of the screen would offer short sidebar-type

information, while the remainder of the page

would provide more in-depth text.

The Individual Artist Pages would be similar in

form and content to the Art Movement Home

Pages, with sidebar information to the left and

body copy on the remainder of the screen.

Evaluation

While this model is very visually appealing,

we are concerned about the adaptability of the

horizontal navbar. Horizontal navigation can

only accept a limited number of options.

Option 2

Our second option presents an interesing crop

of a painting, with the title text reversed out of

the image. The Art Movements are listed in a

left sidebar, while the search box has a prime

location top center. Introductory text takes up

the center 2/4 of the screen, with images and/or

supplemental text filling out the right sidebar

area.

The Art Movement Home Page would

again feature a crop of an art piece from that

movement, with the same reversed-out treatment

of the page title. Individual Artists are listed in

the left sidebar, with a breadcrumb trail at the

top of the central content section.

Individual Artists pages will follow much the

same pattern, with a painting by that artist

featured in the header, menu options on the left

sidebar, a breadcrumb trail in the center, and

supplemental information to the right.

Evaluation

This design is visually the “coolest,” an important

consideration when designing for teens and

young adults. The sidebar navigation is familiar

and comfortable and offers the greatest flexibility

in terms of the number of options it can

accomodate. The screen division presents a light

appearance that is less intimidating than a text-

heavy page.
