Here is a website that Revolution Inc. have been working. They have asked me to design some simple tables to show the different features of each type of racking and their ratings between 1 and 5.
Here is an initial table I have put together based on the information I had been given. I was told that the font needs to be Arial 14pt, and the ratings were to be in a bar chart format. I have decided to colour the bars in green as this is used in the logo and it is a positive colour. However, I think the bars look boring as one block colour so I am going to play around with gradients.
I had a play around with gradients to create a 3D bar to make the table look a little more interesting, but decided that in this case it wouldn't look right as the rest of the website has a very simple, flat design.
This is the final idea that I sent to Julian for proofing.
Julian liked the tables and thought they were fine for the website so I simply repeated the design for the other four types of racking and added a 'low - high' scale so people will understand what the bars mean. I'm not sure that 'low - high' is the best scale to use as i'm not sure it makes much sense to explain how good the features are, but this is what Julian wants and for now I can't think of a better way of describing it.
After saving these in jpeg format I realised that it saved as one image and that it cropped the image right up to the text so I had to copy and paste each one onto an artboard in a separate file, and add a white rectangle in the background to ensure that there will be some whitespace around the edge.
