Clemson University Outdoor Lab

Project Description:

I was contracted to design and produce the Outdoor Lab’s home page in the summer of 2003. After working with lab staff to gather requirements, I designed a logo, color scheme and layout for the main page and sub-indexes. The staff asked that the design be quick to download, even on slow dial-up connections, that it include the Clemson official colors and signage, and that it be easy to maintain. The design achieved the requests by relying heavily on cascading style sheets, instead of graphics, for color, hover effects, etc. The two-column layout also relies very little on inlaid tables, making the HTML clean and easy to maintain. The design was launched in early 2004.
