Website research

Image
  While doing research on the website 'Printworkslondon' , I found it simple and convenient. When the window is opened, a short cinematic preview starts immediately on the topic of what it is and what is here. By the clicking on the menu button in the upper left corner  I can see all sections of the site. The main page on the website Westminster Live Television Studios has a different design than the previous one. 3 photos of three studios are located in the center. When I scroll down I can see description about studios and the contact information. By clicking on one of the studios on the screen, there is still a choice of three studios, which prevents you from getting lost. On the Magazine London website the layout is very simple on a white background Youtube video with an overview in a frame with the name of the company and section are located on top.
