Really enjoy the third one. Not sure about the first three.

Re: project_3_roughs
I think the 4th one is really nice but there is some contrast issues. I think this would make a great background site wide. Or it could change but you would need visually similar images to make it unified I think. Lots of color I like it.

Wow the color in that 2nd style, amazing. The movement, and use of everything we've learned. That 2nd layout is just awesome, roll with that one, make it happen!

Not sure how you're gonna make the diagonal buttons work but so far I like your first design better. It looks less busy, aren't floating in space, and have less contrast issues. Go for the first one!

Re: project_3_roughs
Ooooh. I think you've got two equally interesting designs here.
I slightly prefer the first.
The second has great movement and that's an awesome home page. I love the redesign of the logo and it's placement. And the colors and movement of the figure in the background is excellent. Unfortunately I can't read anything against it. Both your home page and inner page have some serious contrast issues.
The first design, however, has excellent contrast, both in shape and color. I really like the diagonal structure. It keeps the eye moving through the design. It even helps the navigation. Maybe work in a subtle pattern in the large dark gray areas to the left and right. I like the diagonal pop up images as well. The large picture area will really lend itself to showing off images in the work gallery.
I'd make the white areas in the design (but not the type) either black or a light gray. White seems a little ... unfinished. I'd also move the "GRC" text in the upper left down a bit so it's more visually centered on both your home page and inner pages.

I'm loving the last design. It's very expressive and unique. I would fix what little contrast issues you have and stick with it! Great job

Re: project_3_roughs
I like what you are trying to do with the second one. I'm wondering if the color choices are a strong pic tho. Also, I think it would be cool if you could use your TMCC logo and have each "slice" (if you will) be a link. I think that would reli make the page interesting. ^^

Re: project_3_roughs
These are both really nice I really like the first design it screams TMCC so that is awesome. I especially like the inner page with the squares at the bottom. My suggestion is to add more contrast for the button in the inner page of the first design because I cant see the buttons with that dark green color on the black background.

Re: project_3_roughs
I think the 2nd is unique. Work out the contrast issues and you're good to go.
