4. What you like/dislike about the site. Why?
What I dislike about the site is that its overall alignment of the site should be at the center and the bottom part of the website is too messy.
On the other hand, I like about the corporate color as it really depicts the contemporary art feeling of the website. There is also other language selection for the viewer as the creator of the site knew that it isn’t only local viewing that site. (creator knows his target audience)

4. What you like/dislike about the site. Why?
I like about the Simple yet contrasting design of the website. Their classifications of tabs are neat and easy to find the information that you’re looking for.
