web critique #2- hydepark art

http://www.hydeparkart.org/
content: there is a lot of great, useful information available. i was not overwhelmed with too much. i like how the site welcomes you on the first page. it encourages you to view more. it inspired me to read more about the center.

design: the design is simple and clean. the color palette used for the fonts could be more vibrant. also, the font size a little small which might make it difficult to read for some users.

usability: this site is very easy to navigate. links are accessible but i feel the fonts could be larger to make them more accessible. i like how there is abstracts for each sub subject followed by a link that says "details>".

  1. Nice points about accessibility in terms of the fonts colors and sizes. Web accessibility is a HUGE issue. While it can make some aspects of web design incredibly tedious, consideration for accessibility has become very important. The World Wide Web Consortium dedicates a lot of research to the subject and has identified standards and best practices in web accessibility. Here's their site: http://www.w3.org/WAI/.
