I like the play between the dark background and white background that holds the main copy and extras on this site. The top of the site is a skyline, which is done quite well, and the bottom just becomes shapes that somehow work together visually. There’s not a ton of info on this site but somehow it has a sense of expansiveness, perhaps that’s the skyline graphic working on me.
Fitts’s Law: Why the Easy Button Wins
Large, close targets are faster to hit than small, distant ones, that’s Fitts’s Law. A look at the 1954 rule behind buttons, prime and magic pixels, thumb zones, and dark patterns.
I like the skyline as well, and the fact that I am able to recognize landmarks from all over. Upon looking a little closer you are even able to see retro type rays shining out from behind the skyline background. A few of the minor details like this really make the site.
Nice observation Shay, I didn’t actually catch that earlier. Very true on the details making the site.
