Web Design Brief

A residential and commercial painting company based in Albuquerque, NM, USA needs a fresh, new, fun, and playful--yet, simple, elegant and professional--website made.

Here is a link to their existing site:

http://andyspainting.com/

We want to keep a similar site structure., So the navigation layout will stay the same. However, the video is too small, is too far over in the sidebar, and the overall design is amateur at best. We want something bright, colorful and bold!

We will need a space for the Video above the fold, and there needs to be space in the design for Testimonials, Specials and Images. It’s also very important to have the Angie’s List awards that you see on his current website.

Please also include somewhere in the Design icons for YouTube, Facebook, Google+ and LinkedIn.

Here are some examples to look at to get your creative juices flowing!

We have accounts at both istockphoto.com and fotolia.com. If you use placeholder images from there, that's fine. We can buy the images when and if your design is selected.

Target Market(s)

The audience is the average middle class homeowner to higher upper class. This should appeal to families, couples, and singles who own a home.

Requirements
Must have
  • - - Lots of color! It's a site about painting homes. People like a variety of colors. Bring out your inner artist, and get bold with your colors!

    - - A video place holder. As you can see, there is a video on the existing site, but it's small and hidden. Make it big and put it top left, or in the center.

    - -Detailed and organized PSD structure. We're going to turn your design into a website, and to make that work soothly, we ask that you organize you PSD well: name your layers, keep things separated, group and ungroup as necessary, etc.

    - A sidebar that goes down the right side of an interior page. We need a homepage, and also one [1] interior page template. We don't need you to make a design for each page. Just the homepage, followed by a simple interior page design that requires only the header/navigation, and a sidebar down the right side.
Should not have
  • - Coding. This is a design project only.
