I chose to review the two sites Six Penn Kitchen and Huge Domain. In my opinion, I believe Six Penn Kitchen is better entirely as an overall website compositionally than Huge Domain.
The balance is slightly off on Huge Domain. Some of the titles are centered, and other ones are left aligned, making the website uncomfortable. The entire website seems almost like a game of hopscotch with certain aspects having two squares next to each other, and others just being on giant square. With Six Penn Kitchen, the website is neatly organized. Everything looks like it fits together neatly in one border. It is easy for the viewer to follow.
The unity is off on Huge Domain. The colors are all over the place, making everything jump out at once. It gives the viewer a headache. There’s too many random splotches of green and red and blue, rather than just one bright color and some black. And there isn’t just one theme to tie it together. For Six Penn Kitchen, the overall look is clean, with colors reflecting the food. Yes there’s more than two colors, but they are subdued in a way that blends it into the website’s aspect.
The emphasis is clear on Six Penn Kitchen that the main point of the website is the food. Your eyes directly go to the bright colorful food, and then to the information surrounding it. For Huge Domain, the layout is sloppy, and the viewer isn’t sure what the important information is.
The layout for Huge Domain is sloppy. There’s a lot of buttons leading you other places making it awkward. For Six Penn Kitchen, there is a clear menu bar, making it easy for the viewer to navigate, unlike Huge Domain.
In conclusion, I firmly believe Six Penn Kitchen is a more aesthetically pleasing site than Huge Domain.
