A Place for Learning Something New
meHobby is my very own brainchild in the making. The idea is to provide a simple way to discover new and interesting pastimes. Articles on the site are aimed at passing on low cost ways to try things out and not making large financial commitments by buying equipment. Later posts will look at ways of making money from your interests and interviews with people already doing so.
The Design
The site is designed with a rich colour scheme that pays attention to visual psychology. For example blue suggests trust worthiness, finance and freedom (look at logos for banks and you will see what I mean!). Orange is associated with fun and good value. It quickly informs the user what the purpose of the website is and has a “call to action” button right at the start, encouraging the viewer to continue further.
Design Elements
Mobile Friendly
The site uses a responsive design, adapting to look great on mobile phones and tablets
Clean & Simple Layout
Clear and easy to read. Plenty of white space to give everything room to breathe. No clutter to distract the causal browser. Zen.
Social Media Integration
Social media buttons allow for easy sharing and following to increase traffic.
