Homepage and Subpage Designs


After trying to make the page a bit darker to feel more fancy I found that two dark made the place look deathly and so I picked a happy medium. Instead of incorporating a gray or black backround I stuck with the tan and just made it darker. I also took my "reserve a table" and "donate" and included them in the nav bar to make the design more clean. One thing that I enjoy about this layout is the space it has. There is not a ton going on and having that white space around it makes it more appealing to look at. The last thing I wanted to do was fill it with clutter especially because it is a gourmet restaurant.


For the subpage all I did was took the middle section out and filled it with the story of how this was established but one comment that I recieved from class was that on my first page my pictures extend to the end and line up with my social networking sites. In the final copy of this I took the cardboard behind the content and extended it to the end and incorporated the red door from the Bowery Mission which is where money can be donated through our site. The red door was a symbol of all is welcome and is an important to the people that run it and the people who go there. I wanted to make that a part of the design because I felt it was an important part of the place and it needed to be represented.
