I have been researching into portfolios and I am finding it hard to create a design that would fit my criteria. I want it to show potential companies that I am right for the specific job but also reflect my personality. I came across a portfolio that I think is a good example of what I'm trying to show.
Hicksdesign is a creative design company that I came across whilst searching for examples of portfolios. The reason why I like the designs was because its simple yet bold and the navigation is easy to use.
As you can see from the example above the designer has gone for a mixture of bold and neutral colours, doing this has not drawn the audiences attention away from the main content. Like I have read in articles they have kept to short pieces of writing and put it where needed. They have kept the contact details on every page making it clear to the users how to get in contact with the company.
What I need to do
What I now need to do is think of a design that would represent me yet impress my companies I intend to apply for. I need to make sure that I have a clear navigation because the users want a to be able to know what they are looking for. I may even try and input a flash intro just to show the skills that I have. For pages I think that I will use a main page, about page, work page, conacts and maybe skills but I could incorporate that with work or about page.
