I) The over-all design.
I wanted a simple design that was easy to navigate so I designed it with simple left hand navigation, under a picture. I chose the five sections because I feel most of my information fits into one of them. The background image is a map of Washington state, where Kennewick was found lies underneath this text-box.

II) Colors
I wanted to keep the colors subtle and use colors that would be in the spirit of Kennewick. The background colors were taken from a landscape photo of an area of Kennewick WA. The background color for the title is taken from the picture on the left.

III) Fonts
For the title I chose a clean sans-serif. I wanted the title to convey Kennewick with poise and dignity. For the other fonts, since this is an archaeologic find, I chose a Times serif font that has been degraded to give it a old weathered look.

IV) Shiny Happy Kennewick
Place the mouse over the ":)" in the lower right of the picture to see how happy Kennewick is to be part of this website.
