Design, uninterrupted #15

April 16th, 2010

Today’s post highlights the design of MuttInk.com.  Featuring an unorthodox layout, the design uses washed out browns, green blues and oranges as the primary color. Hand crafted illustrations employ irregular overlapping ink stains which can be seen on the sidebars and the main illustration, straight but smeared guider lines, the main site logo and creature illustrations in the sidebars. The entire layout is framed by large sidebars that use fading horizontal lines, further reinforcing the hand crafted sketches. The navigation menu in the header uses a beautiful and precise grid, and the same washed out green blue color for highlights. The only thing i would change is to make the fonts bigger for better legibility.
