Simplicity is beautiful.

Web site design has changed with each new innovation in web technology. In less than a decade, the virtual landscape has been drastically altered:

Languages like Java, JavaScript, and DHTML have brought user interaction to new levels.
Multimedia components like Flash, Shockwave, and Quicktime have broken the boundaries of audio and video in website design.
High-speed internet connections like DSL and Cable now mean that the size of a site, for many users, is no longer an issue.

As a result, many web designers have forgotten some basic principles of design. One principle in particular stands out in my mind:

Simplicity.

Simple web design is easier on the eyes -- rather than the garish look of a Vegas casino, simplistic sites are toned-down and comfortable.

Simple site design also means greater ease of use -- the complexity of animated menus, cryptic icons and hidden buttons gives way to usability, navagability, and direction.

I create beautiful, usable websites. It's part science, and part art; that's why I love web site design.
