7days Redesigned

Posted: May 14th, 2007 | Author: dotblack | Filed under: UAE, Web-Design | Comments Off

I liked the previous version of 7days. As a matter of fact, I adored it. Lots of white space, great typography and neat layout. The new design, well, it’s too crowded to my taste, white spaces and white backgrounds have been slashed out with more content and imagery.

Lots of dark areas, filled up with not so good imagery, specially the icons, not the best job.

Vertical tabs are confusing on the homepage, weired. Why should it be vertical?

Low res imagery? Why?

In short w/o going into details of information layout and graphics, forgetting the markup that is all inline Javascript, it’s not as good as the previous version, man what a waste, a great design traded with this average new design. Just, what was wrong with the previous version?

Curious who’s behind this version, any idea?
