    As a musician and engineer of 12 years, I absolutely LOVE all the analogies you made between web design and music composition. I never thought about it like that, just like how music needs soft and loud dynamics to remain interesting, it makes perfect sense the same concept applies visually.

    Wow! This is well crafted lesson. I always hear these terms in design but just now that understand their connection to each other instead of separate concepts.
    Whitespace contrast focal point, multiple focal points can be arranged in a heirarchy. It makes so much sense now.

    Great refresher and back to basics.
    I'm working with my first paying client so this is perfect. She needs more than just a website, so I love this applies to other types of design. I learned basic photography a few months ago and apply the rules of thirds to every design. Which I'm still practicing and trying to get better at.
    I wasn't too confident on how much white space to leave so this helps a lot. I've got a couple designs to fix. Looking forward to the other videos.

      Maybe a better idea would be to sell them on the idea by storytelling - that the design needs to breath, that the space gives a feeling of freshness, that amidst all this calmness here approaches the "hero" of the design etc. :) a little humor and storytelling goes a long way

    The Pantone website knows what they are doing. The shop Now button is the focal point. They probably noticed a problem that people don’t know they can buy straight from their site. Their designers decided to do something radical. A test of conversion rate optimization may tell them the design is just right.

Now they have a "SHOP ALL" button that is not exactly centered and looks slightly different than their other buttons, they have a carousel for four items that SHOWS four items, they have randomly rounded corners or straight corners on their images, they have text as image, random headline styles, wrong line-spacing... They jumped from the frying pan into the fire, it's glorious 😂

    I have a question about the page/section height. When I watch design videos, most often when designing for desktop screen sizes designers use a 1440x1024 frame however the actual viewport height of the browser is usually significantly less. As a developer I can either make the section vertically responsive and make each section fit perfectly into the vh(viewport height) or keep the height pixel perfect to the design and just accept that on many devices the bottom of the hero section for example would not be visible until the user scrolls down. I am a developer with a some design skills but I'm very green In web design so I imagine this may be obvious for some however I was curious if there was a concrete/industry standard solution or if this is more of a judgement call.
