Hey all – are you in the mood for something positively different? We’re used to see vertical websites with fixed width and variable height, depending on the length of the content available within the main layer. Today’s round up highlights horizontal websites being a great new way to create unique web experiences.
Current examples don't make you scroll up and down, but flip things around and use horizontal scroll bar or horizontal scrolling. When it comes to usability of horizontal scrolling websites, they're not universally embraced by the web design community. Such designs seem to be non intuitive and inconvenient to use compared to conventionally styled vertical sites. However, horizontal types of web pages work superbly well with portfolios or photo galleries due to being enormous and panoramic for images. They are just ideal to bring across quirky, bold messages that will create an impact to the visitors, at the same time keeping the writing to a minimum. This technique is employed by a bunch of the websites – see most interesting compiled below:
