Craigslist: LONDON UNDERGROUND

Desktop Sized:

Tablet Sized:

My inspiration is based off the London Underground. I guess I went literal with this project. But my website layout inspiration came from Pottermore.com. On that website anything and everything was a "hotspot" and can lead you to page after page! Its lots of fun to search through images, with that goal in mind I tried to recreate that same level of fun by letting the user wander through London's Underground. I wanted everything in Red and Blue to be a clue for you to click on the image and send you to another part of Craiglist!
