Port Phillip Estate
Designed by Studio Round
This elegant campaign by Studio Round (and developed by Efront), is an odd mix of simplicity and complexity that almost boggles my mind in its contrast. I absolutely love the clean look of a solid background color and clean straight margins. The use of only a few different font sizes does a great job of drawing the eye to what’s important and reducing any clutter in the design. Best of all, in my opinion, is the use of a 3 column, magazine-like layout - it adds that extra touch of sophistication, taking the email from what could have been something quite plain and making it something a bit more special.

I understand this is a minimalist approach to email design, but I hardly see the complexity or an even engaging part to this layout. And using an underline that’s not a link only adds confusion. Not sure why this would get a spotlight on its design? IMO

Pretty meh. Yeah, it’s a great photo, but I have no desire to read the body copy.
