After finally feeling comfortable enough with WordPress, I endeavored to recreate my site. Having a growing appreciation for typography, it made sense to me that my redesign would move away from the heavy use of images and rely more on well thought out text. While I cannot say my typography skills are great, I am pleased with what I have been able to do. The use of Georgia as my primary font adds a touch of elegance and complexity to what was typically, and admittedly, a mundane site. I wanted to give my site such traits because I hope to focus more on my history related interests, while also showcasing my web design projects. Therefore, it made perfect sense to make this site appear far more professional, which necessitated the need for better typography and color choices.
