Gloria Roubal GDS 220 Graphic Design for the Web: NEED NEW DIGS? One Ocean Drive Realty has the place for you!

This realty company website won an American Web Design Award, and it's a pretty alluring site. The focus is on the photos, and they are some beautiful photos! I've never dealt with a realty company, and I'm sure these are high high high high high end properties in Florida that I will never step into in this life, but it is really fun to look. Actually I would never want to live in such luxury in reality—not my style—but I enjoyed looking through the website. Check it out: One Ocean Drive Realty

Overall, I like the focus on photos a lot. I like that the rest of the site is black, white, gray, with a little blue and aqua. Clean typography (although I wouldn't use the italics that they use on some pages) and very easy navigation. Simple and clear. The logo could be improved, but it's not terrible.

If I win the lottery (which won't happen since I don't actually play), I would first use a lot of the money to help people and animals in need, then buy all the best musical gear and guitars as well as all the best graphic design toys... stuff like that. I'd get a massage every week or more, hire a personal cook and personal trainer, treat my friends and family like royalty, rescue a bunch of animals, and then I might consider looking into a slightly luxurious home. Well, nah.... but it's fun to dream. :)
