From the scouring of my online adventures and I bring them here to you. For your surfing pleasure and also a sight to lighten up those sore eyes caused by common or bad design. Each of these website hold its strengths on its own and have little weaknesses.
First website I’m presenting is a restaurant that resides in Leeds, Headingley. The restaurant is called Trio and their website feels like a direct representation of their restaurant atmosphere. When I first visited this website, I already felt relaxed and laid back. It’s choice of warm colors with a tinge of grungy brush effects has really brought out the identity of Trio if visited for a meal. I’d highly recommend a website like this as an example for anyone doing a website for a Bar & Grill. Visit Trio – Headingley, HERE.
Next website is an accomodative cottage in Victoria, Australia. It’s called the Elm Cottage Ballarat Accomodation and the first visit to this website was a visualisation of a real getaway. The getaway isn’t the feeling like tour websites but more like a pleasant discreet type getaway. A place where you can live your life awhile without anyone really knowing you. The only fallback I found on this website is the print function (the ‘p’) and the control of text size (up and down arrow). Visit the website and have a feel yourself, HERE.
*Sigh with Awe* You know how some photoblogs can really get to you if given the right treatment especially with pictures just protruding and telling a message. Well, I’ve come across this website that has a soft white coat laid over and its imagery is just amazingly beautiful. The feeling you get from The Snowsuit Effort by Keith is really something you’d want to fall in from time to time. Tempted yet? Well, head on over and experience it, HERE.
Last website of mention follows the trend of today. It’s usage of light green and soft blue tones have definetely brought shine to it. StyleSurge is a company that develop websites and provide other solutions. Now, if I never mentioned that, I’m not sure how many of their first time visitors would actually realize they’re a company that provides these services. I’m not sure if it’s in the name or the presentation of the website but don’t get me wrong cause their website looks totally awesome. It’s just that when I visited, it sounded and looked like one of those websites that feature other great websites. Anyway, have a visit HERE and let me know what you think later.
