  1. 6:03 In addition to building trust quickly, I think the logo quilt is there for positioning purposes also. It's a way of telling the user 'We are very comfortable producing extremely high quality content for global brands'. It is a way of defining who their target market is (medium to large companies or perhaps start-ups who aim to be to next big thing). A mom and pop grocery store who just want to put a website up will look at that and probably think 'Maybe these aren't the guys for me'.

  2. You should give me some tips on my two websites (personal and branding or design based one) and my youtube logo image trying to bring people in to check them out.

  3. Was this designed in black and white, or was that only for print? I'm guessing to help concentrate on the layout without the distraction of choosing colour at each stage. Is that right?

  4. Am I the only one who really hates the fact that website's these days are scroll down website's? Big ass pictures, almost no text (which is actual content) and you're scrolling for hours just to find the damn information you're looking for.

  5. This is awesome! I came here for tips on aesthetics and got a ground up conversation about UX, UI and how they relate to the relevance of a company in the marketplace. Much more dense than I had anticipated and extremely valuable! If I had one takeaway here it is that telling stories, and defining/ framing value for the customer are THE foundation of relevance in a space. Thank you!

  6. How could there be 52 idiots who do not like this video…
    I see you are running a lot of usage tracking plugins on the site. Can you say a little about it without giving away your secret sauce?
    Now subbed and Notified. Thanks.

  7. Amazing video!!. Thank you @the futur this is the video I was exactly looking for!. I just dived into web designing as a developer and I wanted to find out what I need to build my portfolio which was mockup of websites,sitemap's and websites. But please let me know if I'm off with this approach. 😁

  8. Also, can you pls explain WEB colours wheel use vs CMYK colour wheel use. I mean, for analog colour wheel opposite colours (that gives you most contrast) would be: red and green. But for screen, which are the most vibrant/contrast colours? Hope it make sense 🙂
