The user is very important for me, so a design that is really cool for me, might be a total nightmare to someone else out there, so that's why I really need to pay attention to how I design my pages. I want them to be:
1) Easy to use so you can do everything you intend to do.
2) Clean, so all the informations are organised.
3) Every page should have a clear message, so you know what you're doing at that particular page.
4) Clean images with clean text
5) With every button leading to where it suppose to.
With that in mind, I'm adapting my layout to a more "square" theme. In my head I was going a bit nuts and I was using the layout in a way that I thought it could make my pages polluted and confusing. I increased the white space and add a sidebar, something I wasn't planning at all at any point. But it's important to have the main information that needs to be there on every page. Maybe having the calendar there with a twitter feed and maybe a widget with a link to Amazon store.
I want my website to be a main source for wearables and not only because of the content but because of the amount of information about it. If you ever need anything about wearable you would go first to my site, so my informations need to be put in a way that is unclear.
With that being said, I'm playing with a 2 column styles or 3 columns and a footer. Every part is important on their on way. The sidebar contains informations such as calendars, twitter/facebook feed or any good and useful content. The footer must contain the icons of social media links or maybe some "feed" links and contact as well. The main area would be where the features are in order or post. So the main ones are first (or inside a slideshow).
