PROJECT 02

Part 2: Working Web Page (20%)


Task Instruction 
The objective of this assignment is to transform your static prototype from Project 1 into a fully functional and interactive web page. You will apply your knowledge of web layout class to create a working website that closely aligns with your original prototype. Review your static prototype from Project 1 and analyze its layout, typography, color scheme, and imagery.
Use HTML and CSS to translate the design elements into code, ensuring a faithful representation of the original prototype.

Aim for pixel-perfect precision while maintaining responsive design principles to ensure compatibility across different devices and screen sizes. Upload the file in Netlify, update your e-portfolio with all the processes documented in the blog, and submit the link as a submission.


1. Original Prototype Design 
At first, we were instructed to analyze the initial prototype design we created in Project 1. Below is the original prototype layout I did in the previous project along with colours, and typefaces.

Colour Scheme

Typeface

Fig 1.3 Chosen typefaces (Montserrat Alternatives; DM Sans), Week 10

For the typeface, I maintained the header font (Montserrat Alternatives), but for the body font I could not find the exact font from Google Fonts, so I used a similar typeface (DM Sans) instead for project 2. 



2. Translating to HTML

Fig 2.1 Modified HTML Codes, Week 10

To begin with the translation, I mainly referred to the webpage design exercise we did in class the same week. Adjustments like change of colour, typeface, positions and size were modified in this process. 

Images
Fig 2.2 Exporting Images/Necessary Elements to Illustrator, Week 10

For images, I exported them from Adobe XD into Illustrator to adjust their size and position. I saved them as transparent PNG files and inserted them into the HTML code accordingly. 


Fig 2.3 Project 1 Prototype, Week 10

Initially, my profile image from the original prototype design led to the 'About' page when clicked. Following this, I inserted a link to my image and let it change its colour when being hovered. The colour of my profile image was edited using a background fill layer and blending mode in Photoshop.

Fig 2.5 Editing on Photoshop, Week 10

To make this feature more interactive, I used the transform scale code with the transition to 0.25s in my CSS sheet. The percentage of filter property lets the image stay in grayscale in a normal state and turn greenish when being hovered.

Same process were done for the logos located on the top left/ bottom center of the webpage. I used the inverted property on filter to make the logo change its shade to white when hovered with cursor.
