Web Design Brief
We need a web design (especially for the home page) for a new company 'TechFinder'. We are a website in which connects business owners in the United States with IT professionals based on their specific needs.
We would like to see designs that use the colors blue, orange and grey. The final design should entice the user of the website to submit their service request.
The look should communicate ease of use and trustworthiness. We are looking for a clean design without too much cramped on the page. It is crucial that the page is easy to read and understand the purpose of the site.
Here are websites the design of which we like:
www.iyogi.com - this site has nice (sleek) design, which looks 'techy'. However, we are not tied to this design/layout, but we do like how they handle colors.
www.evernote.com - same for this site, but also they have a good way to handle navigation
www.airbnb.com - same for this site - simple, easy on the eyes
www.apple.com - same here - simple home page
Also, the company that does something similar just for an example is www.servicemagic.com
Attached are the wireframes we have so far, but we are open to new directions.
Updates
Please let us know if possible to produce comps based on the home page provided in the power point wire frames. Please note that we are interested in a clean design and layout. Please use website below as an inspiration and creative direction:
