Exploring a few more design ideas to web banner suggested during professor critique

Several design changes have been made to one of the web banners – an exploration inspired by Professor Groat’s critique:

• Introduction of gray font (change from black) in planning –  budgeting – assessment area
• Addition of gold tone circular bullets in same area
• Change in front from Garamond Italic to Berlin Sans FB in website, phone, and email to improve readability

I also reduced the size of the FB button.

A third web banner changing the border from plum to gold (and making it 2 rather than 1 pixel wide) and changing the order of the email, phone, and website to form a pyramid that balances the selling line has also  been added.  These changes were also inspired by another round of professor critique.

Let’s set them side by side for consideration:

 

What do you think?

Which version do you prefer?

Does this inspire you to something else?

As you might have noted, the critique is also taking the form of a ‘client – graphic designer’ relationship… seeking input from Professor Groat on style preferences.
