Critique: The layout of MICA's homepage is very non-typical. The header being placed slightly further down is a unique touch, and it works well as a divider. The fact that it stretches across the width of the screen really draws the eye, and its colors change to match the featured artwork, which keeps it from being too distracting. The navigation is kept neat within the header, and is kept uncluttered by only including the more important links. Despite the various images being so different from one another, the page is still easy to navigate. It probably helps that all the images vary in size and are organized around the text, which is consistent in copy style without blending. The one thing I'd like to change are the link colors in the navigation. Purple on orange is difficult to read, and the hover color isn't very attractive against the orange, either. You can tell right away that this site belongs to an art college, which means it does it's job in representing the college.
