Navigation on any website is an element of great significance. Located on the very front page to every single page of a website, everything on a site is dependent upon it because that is exactly how your site is “browse-able”. Thus, nothing goes without navigation. Its nature, functional capabilities, even location and design affects a website’s performance and due credit to its uniqueness and popularity.
There is very limited to what you can do with this particular element when designing is concerned. Navigation runs in a conventional way with its head-side bar placement, text-based buttons for sole purpose of making navigation a hassle-free concern. Very true as moving from a created norm of text navigational bars, content search and browsing will become less convenient. Unnecessary complications turning navigation into a puzzle that not many people would stay around to solve, will definitely affect a website’s performance and thus, popularity. Confused users will bailout in no time. So, trying to be creative with navigation bars/buttons, one has to be extremely vigilant.
Nevertheless, this has be tampered with and dealt with, with great results in increasing popularity and originality of design which is what we are showcasing today, a great collection of websites with unusual navigation, very engaging and creative ones. Get inspired!
