Seven Trees Website - December 7, 2009

Website

This is a website for a clothing company in Vancouver. All the artwork is done by an artist named Dave Oram who strives on doing this out of pure passion. The clothes represent the culture in the city as well as their history. The wet-coast rains and city scenes are meant to express a real-life inspiration. The textures and his art on the page really make that idea of "wet" and "history" stand out. They all look really rugged and worn, and bring across a feeling of something very old but beautiful. I also like the stacking look the website has for all the components. It looks like you're sitting at his desk reading through and looking at his work. The text also matches the subtle "underground" tone he's trying to convey. There are some changes that could definitely be made to better the site, though. The news page should be revamped and have all the sections separated, it's too much of a pain to scroll through all that garbage when a link could easily represent it on the main news page. Other than that it's a great website. A good example of artwork making the website.
