Sustainability Site Design



I chose to go with the idea of making infographics showing where money goes in album/single sales. I found data that tracked the percentages of how much money goes to the artist and the record companies when music is purchased in the form of CDs, digital downloads, and in streaming content from several different sites (itunes, amazon, artist's website, etc). I designed the site as a vertically scrolling display with square modules that hold the information. There are 4 modules for 4 different ways to purchase a CD, 4 modules for different ways to purchase digital downloads, and 3 modules for different streaming content sites (11 squares total). There's an introductory paragraph at the top (dummy text right now). The nav doesn't actually link to other pages, but instead to areas on the homepage. The default is set to the CDs section, because that is the first section of modules. If you were to click on "digital downloads" the page would scroll down to where the digital download modules begin on the page for you. The "streaming" button scrolls down to that section of the page. The "home" button would scroll back to the very top (refreshes the page). The blue box indicates which section it is on. The nav and the logo will float on the side of the page at all times. Any suggestions/questions would be helpful!
