JadAbumrad.com

The brief Bio is the main page on an iPad, but on a laptop computer, the first page is the subject’s name spelled out in floating pixel pieces on a white screen. Shows statistics about his show. First person speech. There is a cartoon of Jad Abumrad, the creator of a radio program called Radiolab. There is a Twitter feed on bottom with photos. The layout is very plain with very few graphic. Monochromatic, barely washed out.

Subpages are along the top:

Bio   Music   Radio   Speaking   Press   Contact

All the subpages are introduced with casual language
Music page: Soundcloud links, descriptions underneath them, scrolling screen in center of page, top bar remains static throughout

Radio page: embedded links to Radiolab full episodes with descriptions

Speaking: Tour schedule, font crossed out for events that have already taken place, gives a feeling of impermanence, or “catch-it-while-you-can”

Page is open to exploration. Every piece of creative product is easy to access. All the small descriptions frame the pieces of the website in a way that is inviting to the audience.
This site is professional and playful, which I hope to emulate soon.
