1. urbanoutfitters.com
I think this is a good design and it attracts the target market (teenagers). They also constantly update and change the background to match the latest trend. It’s excellent in readability. They recently changed some designs in which it allows the web visitors to view things they’ve checked before while they are looking at other apparel products.

I often go to the school’s website to find out the open hours of buildings. The webpage for the bookstore frustrates me because it does not tell us when it’s open.

3. usbank.com & (mixi.co.jp)
It is important for me to be able to view my account information anytime and anywhere I need. The design is concise and easy to read. Besides white, the predominant color or background they use for their web site is blue which is seen as trustworthy and dependable.
The Japanese website, mixi.co.jp, is like myspace.com, but because it is Japanese, they provide a lot of information and news about what’s going on in Japan. It is useful for me in many cases.
