Asg3: HTML emails and email resume

This layout is classic, simple, Starbucks. The black background effectively pops out everything else in the email. The text has nice tan tones so they are not harsh against the black background. It is readable and looks like the brand it is representing.














corbis



This design is also appealing because of its colors and text variations, but also because of its geometric, very organized structure. Everything can be easily read and the page seems very natural to navigate through.









mat

The simplicity of this design makes this layout appealing. The use of one bright color is enough to keep the eye interested but is not too much as to take away from the photos and content of the email.
























This design is very simple and easy to use. The navigation tabs can be clearly found at the top of the page and each paragraph is organized beautifully into the grid along with descriptive pictures. I really like the combination of the serif and slab-serif fonts.












mat

Once again, this design shines because of its simplicity. A classic black and white design with variations of gray and a serif, sans-serif typographic combo.
