Design Disrepair
The keys to successful Website renovation.
For the average do-it-yourselfer, overhauling and updating a dilapidated Website can be a daunting task. What changes will provide the best return on investment? What are the penalties of ignoring building codes? How long will it take before a Website looks outdated again? While there is still a high demand for new Websites, there is over a decade's worth of Websites in need of a face-lift — or a wrecking ball. Before you plan to renovate a run-down Website, the above questions need answers.
In this session, designer and DIY veteran Jason Beaird will offer a creative spin on the Website redesign process as it relates to home renovation. He'll share some hard-earned tips for the novice designer and a perspective that will benefit anyone involved in Website design and maintenance. So when does a portfolio site need granite countertops or a forum need a little curb appeal? By critiquing examples, discussing techniques, and sharing personal experience, Jason will ensure that everyone is prepared to sling the proverbial sledgehammer.
