More on Web Aesthetics

Aesthetics on the web is an interesting thing. I believe it is more about relationships than about beauty or how pleasing to the eye something is. Let me explain. The internet is functional so it needs to be practical to use, it is limited by technology so it needs to conform to standards, it needs to contain content or it is pointless and all this needs to be legible to people can see it easily. Aesthetics on the internet is the relationship between these factors.

Form + Content + Function = Aesthetically Good

All factors must be present and they must all also compliment each other and that is what makes good web aesthetics in my opinion.
