Header design experiments

The header is an important area of the site. Users form first impressions, it reinforces our organisation’s visual identity and it is where users go when they get stuck. We did some experiments around design approaches to header including possible image selection ranging from abstract to landscape to skills.

Abstract shapes and images

Abstract images with shapes including tools

Landscapes and aerial photography

An abstract desert

The WorldSkills “cube”

Skills images and the Abu Dhabi skyline

We hope you enjoyed taking a look at some of the directions we’ve been exploring for the site’s header. The visual design language, information architecture and image selection will continue to evolve as the site develops through the remainder of the alpha and into the beta. Please get in touch if you have any thoughts or feedback.
