Artist Awesome Web Design

http://www.perfume-web.jp/

 
http://www.perfume-web.jp/
 
 Perfume is one of my favorite artists in Japan. I would like to introduce this artist’s website because I have never seen a website as awesome as this artist’s website before. This artist has two websites which are the official website and the official global website. The official website is designed well and is for normal visitors that can check on the artist’s information. However, the official global website is very different from the official website. The global official website is designed very creatively featuring an electronic-futuristic style with 3D graphics. There are links in certain sections where visitors can create and play some videos too! Please visit and have fun!

Artist Web

                 Jounetsu Mariko

http://www.jonetsu-web.com/
 

The webpage for Jounetsu Mariko is a creative, one long page web design. I like the links at the top of the page because of how nice and illustrative the fonts are. The website also features a lot of simple white line and dot illustrations over a black background which gives it a very unique feel. There are many photos that are used in combination with the illustrations in the back. I would like to try and make a website using this website as sample.
 

Musician 7

                 KISS


http://www.kissonline.com/welcome
 
Kiss’s website is amazing. The picture of the band and the logo makes the website very attractive and stand out. It would easily stick to the minds of visitors as it’s kind of hard to think it is not memorable. I like how they put a video clip in the middle of the homepage as it gives viewers a taste of how they perform and sing. I also really love the font because it is the same font style as the one they use in their logo.

Artist Web

                  Amuro Namie

http://namieamuro.jp/
 
This is Amuro Namie’s website. She is my favorite artist from Japan. I like how the pages are oriented diagonally as you scroll through for information regarding her albums. One page also shows a music video for one of the pages. Other information is included at the top of the page which links you to separate pages. Her logo is also a top page button. The logo is a very pretty and unique design, and I love how the overall design.

Artist Web

                 Beyoncé

http://www.beyonce.com/
 
Beyoncé’s website has a very simple and unique design that I rarely ever see. The photographs are all attached to the entire page like a collage. The photographs are links that show other photos, video clips, and etc. Also, the site has a link on the top left corner that lets you check out other stuff. I feel it’s a good thing that the webpage features a top page button for better convenience.

Artist Web

                 Bruno Mars


http://www.brunomars.com/#block-block-801

Bruno Mars’s website features a long page and a simple design that is easy to navigate. Each page features a picture of Bruno Mars in the background. The site shows its links of the left side of the website. I like the website because of easy and fast it is to find more information about the artist. The only problem I have with the website is how the filter that was used on the website’s background picture puts a strain on my eyes.

Musician 6

                 Pink Floyd

http://www.pinkfloyd.com/theendlessriver/
 
One thing that I love about this website is how one large picture is used as the background for the website. When I opened the website the intro was very amazing. The picture is also dynamic and features a very beautiful scenery that I wouldn’t mind staring into for a while. When I click on a link, I can still see the background through the paragraphs. I like when I click on the gallery, the pictures takes up the entire space of the website.


Artist Web

                  Katy Perry


http://www.katyperry.com/

 

This is Katy Perry’s website. I love the web design overall and feel that it was designed perfectly. Each page features a different pose of the Katy Perry. Each page also has different styles of links which are complemented which nice images and makes each feel unique. The fonts are very readable and are aligned perfectly. I like it when I can see the other links on the corner of the page. If I want to go back to the homepage, I simply click on the Katy Perry’s name which is in the top right corner of the page. The color scheme is calm and warm which makes it a nice and relaxing viewing experience everytime.

Musician

                 Tacica

http://www.tacica.jp/top.html#news

I love this website. The Tacica website’s design is very clean and simple. I love the logo design and also like the background picture which features a very calm and artistic scene. Each block on the page is aligned clearly, and the colors and the fonts that are used in the design are not only readable but also complement each other very well to create a unique them.
 
 
 

Musician 5

                  Red Dracul Scar Tissue

http://www.reddracul-scartissue.com/index.html

BOO! It is Halloween season! This is the musician “Red Dracul Scar Tissue’s” website. I thought this was scary and cute at the same time. I like how tries to make visitors have some fun by clicking on the images to watch either animations or find links. I love the artwork of background and when the ghost is popping out! Have fun clicking on the screen!
 
 

Musician 4

                 Catcher in the Rye

http://super7.datarockmusic.com/
 
Catcher in the Rye is the artist of this website. I love the homepage because it has cute characters and artwork in the background and also features a nice logo in the top right corner. I thought this website was unique and simple (the website only has three pages). To find the next or previous button, move around the mouse on the right area or left area on the screen. If you want to go to other pages, slide to the left or right.
 


 

 

Musician 3

                  CLAMMBON

http://www.clammbon.com/ikuko/
 
This is website for a musician called “Clammbon.” The image is very unique and interactive. Whenever I hover the mouse of an image or letter, the images change into a different image which link to another page. I want to make a homepage that is simple but attractive. The only con I could see is how unreadable the fonts are and how long the body is for each link. I also would have preferred having a homepage button so that I could go back to the top.

Musician 2


                 The Mirraz


http://the-mirraz.com/?cat=205
 


This is the Japanese rock musician’s, TheMirraz, website. The website features a Halloween design because of how close Halloween is. I thought this site had a very nice and unique look to it. The logo is very creative and the character is very cute. I really loved how they put the music video ads on the home page because it makes it easier for the viewer to know what kind of songs the band sings. The other pro is how the links at the top of the page have very readable fonts. However, the cons are how the entire body unreadable and too long. Because of these cons it made me stop reading in the middle of one of the paragraphs. The fonts are squashed together which makes it very hard to read everything. I would rather read something that is more simple, short and straight forward.

Musician

                 Bloc Party Four 

http://blocparty.com/#home
 
This is Bloc Part Four’s website, which features a simple and creative design. I also found it interesting that the website only features six colors throughout the entire site. This is also a long page website which does not stop at the end of the page; this is a routine style for this type of webpage. If I want to click on a link, I can either click on the links at the top of the page or I can click on the corresponding colored circles in the center of the page

Portfolio 3


                  JOJO

 

http://www.jojodesign.jp/
 


I have seen a lot of circular designs on a website before, but JOJO’s website in particular has a very nice and simple design. It features many red moving circles. I like everything on this website. For example, all of the links are on the right side and are easily accessible despite how long the list of options are. Another pro the website the website has is how the circular images are all links to the designer’s works and also a link to put the viewer back to the top. Having a “top of the page” button is important as it makes a viewer’s life easier should they feel the need to go back to the top. Otherwise, it is time consuming just to scroll all the way back. Overall, the website has a very nice design.

Portfolio 2

                 Tabata Shougo


http://www.s5-style.com/#!/works
 
This is Tabata Shougo’s portfolio website which is amazing and powerful and easily attracts visitors’ attention. I really like the background of this website because of how the bubbles charmingly float quickly upwards. The link animations are also very unique, and the works are shown very visibly. I love how simple and clear the website’s style is.

Portfolio

                 Ayano Mitoma


http://www.ayanomitoma.com/
 
This is Ayano Mitoma’s portfolio website. I think the artwork is very clean and creative. I love how unique the character is and love how colorful both the character and the background is. The website is fun to interact with because of how the screen slides into other artworks for other links. I would recommend the website designer to put more information about herself so that visitors can get a better idea of what kind of jobs she does. Regardless, the website is very creative and fun.
