Design stage

<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Design 1 <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"> <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">In this design, I have drawn a sunset as a background. On the website, it should be a sunset picture taken in Malawi. This would show how beautiful Malawi is. I have also included a picture of a Malawian traditional dance which would show how they celebrate their festivals. I have designed the layout in this certain way because I don’t want the website to look full of text. That’s why I placed pictures in between the two rows. The information I have included about Malawian culture are; different religion, different tribes, different lifestyle, different types of festivals. Also I have included a description of a typical Malawian environment, a description on how different cultures affect the environment and how Malawian culture affects the environment. <span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Design 2 template for design 2 ====<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">This design is completely different from the one above. In this design, the layout is neater. I have also included a navigation key which includes lifestyle, culture and impact. With this design, I can include more information and pictures. On the homepage, I have included a text box about basic information on Malawi. This is good for the viewers because they can get to know information about Malawi. Also I have included a clip of the nation anthem which I think is important so viewers can listen. ====
