The Web Interface I like most

The URL address above leads to the web layout design which I like most. This designing work is named Dark Rose by Rose Fu. The reason why I like this because there is a combination of ideas of technology and art in classical style. He places the rose on the technological frame and created the artistic fonts with some big nice alphabets for the headline and secondary headlines. In addition, he put everything in the scene of old style that looks like papers teared from the old book which shows up his artistic design. Furthermore, Fu has been successful to give texts in his webpage colour which adapted to the background colour. Because of the colour has not much bright highlight, thus the page is very comfortable to look and to read information texts.

Please visit the site above and you might think this site is simple and not thing special. However, there is tiny thing embed in the layout. The tiny thing which can make me like this site is about the way Shaolin Yokobue, the creator, places picture at the banner. In addition, he tried to fix image to text. For instance, the text "# A Walk in the Garden by Simon Van Hauwermeiren" is out of frame range that makes him change bend the image line, so the text is still in the black background of image. And might be because of that, Yokobue has to bend some places else of straight lines to make the site looks balanced. In general, this site is like an art work.
