I will be re-taking my art work for the website, but I’m also using my logo, which is also my family crest:

I wanted to use the typography element that I used for my resume, and stay there as much as possible.
h1: (title) Scala Pro Regular, 39 pt.
h2: (main navigation) Scala Pro Regular, 14 pt.
h3: (sub navigation) Scala Sans Pro Light Italic, 11pt.
text: Scala Sans Pro Light, 10 pt. if possible, or, Arial 9.5 pt.
h6: (footer) Arial 6pt.

The grid that I chose to use is 12 column:
And this is the gray box examples using the structure:
1. page with out sub navigation
2. page with sub navigation

Interface:
As I posted on the site map, there are four main navigation and sub navigaion is placed only after portfolio:
- about
- contact
- portfolio -art, package, print, logo, and web
- blog
The targeted viewer, who are the clients, are most interested in what kind of work I do, and how to contact me after that. Sub navigation will be invisible if you are clicked on navigation other than portfolio, but will be shown on the side when clicked on portfolio. Within the sub navigation under portfolio, content area will be as of gallery, and will have an arrow button to let the viewer go back and forward.
Wire Frame:
Because the sub navigation will be invisible the most of the time, content area may extend to the left by the main navigation area.

My structure seems very simple, but that’s what I chose to do. It communicates what I’m trying to communicate, and is clear.

In a previous post, I said that I wanted to use Georgia for the type on my portfolio site but as I was working on my portfolio and started to really think through my options, I felt that since I used Futura in my identity, I felt that Palatino was a better option. I would like to use Futura extra bold condensed for the page titles and/or page headers (I may need to insert this as an image) and Palatino for the body.
