Design (de`sign´): the act of working out the form of something; an arrangement scheme; a decorative or artistic work; the creation of something in the mind

"You can design for all of the people some of the time. You can design for some of the people all of the time. But you can't design for all of the people all of the time." (William Hudson with apologies to Abraham Lincoln)

Many elements go into successful Web site design; we can cluster those elements into sensory, conceptual, and reactive aspects. That is, design isn't only what you see, it's also what you think and feel as you navigate a Web site.
You've been charged with a task. Design a Web site that will cause the world to beat a path to its door (URL). While you need to consider the business aspect of the site, you also need to consider the look and the feel of the site ... that is the design. Remember, you are a Web site "designer", not a Web site "fabricator". You only need to understand what is behind the business end of the site.
