One website I liked was BBC Good Food, since the website was so simple and straight to the point with good organization for types of recipes. A lot of recipe websites have so many ads, videos, or confusing organization so I appreciated the simple heirarchy of this website.
Another recipe website I liked was Allrecipes, since it had a really nice simple off-white background with warm colored accents, and was simple. I liked how they organized their buttons with circular images of ingredients or recipes.
My third recipe website was Damn Delicious, which had a more modern spin on a recipe website. It was more personal, but I loved how the website organizes recipes with those beautiful big images above each recipe, which are also uploaded frequently! The visual heirarchy is so clear and I wanted to keep scrolling.
A simple website I like is Khan Academy, which has a nice white background with pops of color and images that give it texture and approachability. I don't want an overwhelming design with too much going on, like a lot of recipe websites seem to have.
Another website I like is Odyssey Interactive, which has bright colors, lures you in with fantastic art, and has very clear navigation, and has images pop up as you scroll. I think the bright colors and effects happening as you scroll is cool and maybe something I would want to try for my recipe website.
And the last website I like is Saint Friend , which has pops of color and generally amicable graphics, which I would want to implement as well. I'm doing a French dessert, but I want it to look inviting, simple, and with pops of color.
