Creating The Navigation Bar:

1. Creating The Navigation Bar: 3

2. Creating The Navigation Bar: Create a new group and name it “navigation“, it should be above “logo” group. Drag a guide from the top ruler, 150px below the top edge of the canvas. Select the Rectangle Tool (U) and draw a horizontal line of 4px height with a color of #e3ab27, across the canvas.

3. Add navigation links at 12px-high from this horizontal line and 20px to the right of the left guide. Select the Rounded Rectangle Tool (U) and draw a box with the size of 72px by 35px. Move this layer below the text links and name the layer “hover“. Straighten the bottom rounded corners with the Convert Point Tool. Move the sides of uneven edges below with an 8px margin to make the edges equal to other inner edges at bottom. Double-click the “hover” layer to open the Layer Style dialog box and add gradient colors (Left color stop: #e5ad27, Right color stop: #b27625). Select the Horizontal Type Tool (T), select the text, “Home” and change color to # ffffff (white).

4. Creating The “Call Us” Section: Next we are going to create the “call us” section at the top-right of our design (exactly opposite side of the logo). Download this phone icon and place this near the right guide. Name this layer “phone icon“. Select the Horizontal Type Tool (T). Add a phone number on the left of the phone icon using the font Arial, with the size set at 20pt and the color #292929. Add some related text below the phone number using font Arial, set at Bold, with a size of 11pt and a color of #595959.

5. Creating The Header: Now we are going to a create the header section. Create a new group and name it “header“. Select the Rectangle Tool (U) and create a rectangle shape with the size of 1200px by 440px. Put this rectangle at a distance of 1px below the navigation bar and name this layer “header bg “. Double-click the “header bg ” layer, select the Gradient Overlay layer style and have these two colors in the Gradient Editor (Left color stop: #2e2226, Right color stop: #7a7556).
