Button Design

Initially I had planned that my buttons would be quite detailed and colourful. I planned to have the buttons red and a font that was quite elaborate, such as French Script or Tempus Sans. When developing the buttons, however, I realised that the colour and font that I was planning on using did not have the effect that I hoped it would. I felt that in comparison to the simplicity of the rest of the site and the banner the elaborate design was too over the top.

For these reasons I decided to make the buttons similar to the banner by being white and having the same font for the writing. I felt that on the black background this was the most effective button design.
