Understanding Web Design Through Real Estate
June 2, 2005

Web Design:
The communication gap between techno-head web designers and the real estate industry can cause all kinds of project problems and mis-understandings. What means “Custom design” to you may not mean “Custom design” to your web developer. So, let’s learn in real estate terms what each web design aspect refers to and how to ask for those by name.

Web design can be defined by these main elements:

1. The design - how your will site look, the colors and images. Think “interior decoration”.
2. The layout - the positioning of the elements on your pages. Think “floorplan”.
3. The content - the words and pictures that fill your site. Think “furniture”.
4. The functionality - how your site will give your visitors and you access to the information and tools you need. Think “amenities”.

Just as the interior decoration, floorplan, furniture and amenities can make or break a real estate deal, the design, layout, content and functionality will do the same for your web site.
