This website seems to be geared towards more everyday people. When I look through the poems they are about everyday struggles that the writer encounters

 

 

Visual analysis

Aural

From what I can tell, this website does not have any aural features

Visual

Upon opening the website, I notice the clean and simple visual design of the page.

 

As you can see, the top of the site features the logo as well as links beneath it to access magazines books and their workshop.

 

One thing to notice throughout the page is that the material seems to all be centered on the page

 

The only noticeable parts that are not centered is a small shopping cart symbol in the top right-hand corner and a menu bar in the top left that opens to reveal ten additional links.

 

As you move down the page you come across posts that are similar to ones you see in blogs

 

Rather than being articles, it looks like each post is a piece of poetry or a story.

 

Overall I think the visuals are clean yet simple and easy to read

 

 

 

Spatial

Looking at the page, the spatial features are well placed

 

I can clearly see the menu bar in the top left since it is in a contrast color to the page and it is off by itself so it stands out

 

I like the spacing in between each of the posts because it allows the page to feel more spread out instead of cluttered

 

All the work is centered which made things easier to read in my opinion

 

 

Gestural

Since the website is mostly dedicated to posts and reading likes, the homepage does not show any people or gestural qualities

 

 

Linguistic

 

As you can see, there are very few words outside of the work that is featured on the main page

 

The language used in the works you see on the page is more relaxed and expressive
