I have visited the site and I was amazed at how beautiful and simple it is. This paper will be my reaction to the given site in terms of criteria in designs. I have observed that the site has links that when I click it will lead me to different websites. In terms of the content, it is very similar to the name of the page the content of the page was wonderful, astonishing, and beautiful as a newbie in creating a website I can rate the website of the animal planet to a higher level or others would call professional. Animal Planet is a website that features different wildlife or animals. Animal Planet is a website that has different video documentaries about different wildlife. If you’re an animal lover I’m sure that you’ll love this site. So let’s move on to the observation of the webpage layout, and designs. There is a different principle we should consider in observing a site. Here are some principles we should consider in observing a website by its design.

 

Balance

• First is balance the symmetrical and asymmetrical arrangements of the text and objects of the web page. I have observed that the text the shapes and buttons are arranged in a simple manner, which makes the site convenient to use, having a simple and balanced arrangement of the designs and content of a site important for the part of the site mobility.

​

Proximity

​

• The next principle that we should consider is proximity, proximity is the nearness of the objects in a site. It is important to have good proximity to a site to avoid the obstacle the user might experience in finding the content he/she wants.

 

Focus

​

• Focus is a principle that each website creator should consider, the content of a site should have a focus on what you want the reader or user to remember. Animal Planet is a website that has one main focus, and that is the animals and their lifestyle.

 

White Space

​

• Whitespace is an important element of design for good reason. We need to deliver and develop layouts that are easy on the eyes and make people want to keep reading. The site of the animal planet is showing the principle of white spaces, as I observed it is enjoyable to read and to browse different content from their sights because the content of the letter is free. I mean free that the reader won’t be stressed to read the content.

 

Unity

​

• Unity is achieved by having a uniform layout of a site. Common from its name unity which means unity. Animal planet’s site has a uniform design for the content of the site, the fonts, the image that represents the video documentary, and many parts such as the buttons, etc.

 

Alignment

​​

• Alignment is the proper arrangement or positioning of the objects and different elements of a site. In creating a site I think it is common to have a proper alignment of elements or objects. So that the user will not struggle in digging in into your site. Base on what I have observed from the animal planets website. It has a proper alignment of objects, the buttons are well placed, the size of each visual representation for the video is equal, and the font has the same sizes.
