This site is one of the first sites I designed and the clients' guests have told him that it is the design of the site that have drawn them to contact him and book holidays. He asked for a site that was representative of the very high quality gite that they provided. He wanted it to stand out from the crowd in a 'classy' way and give the impression from the design alone that their gite was in a league of it's own.
The following site is for another gite, again good quality and wanting to create a good impression. Their property is called 'la reverie' meaning the daydream. I wanted to use colours and create a design that implied a peaceful relaxed location that also gave the illusion of good weather.
These on the other hand are 'work in progress' and therefore don't have links to browsable sites. Clicking on these will just produce a single full scale page.
These two above are new ideas for Dave Thomas' sites. His brief was to keep the sites quite simple, developing the design from his logo that I'd created some time earlier and also one main criteria is that each page is easily printable, hence he wanted to keep the background white as it is on his site at the moment.
This site was an unusual one for me to do as the original site had already been designed and I was asked to produce an English version of it incorporating some of my own ideas but being restricted greatly by the colours and general layout of the original site. I created the new header, uncluding the map, using a typically french typeface. I scanned documentation and images to give the sight more visual impact as previously it had been mostly text and now the two sites run alongside each other.
