Further Client Website Development

I showed my client my initial design of the website, they gave me the following feedback:

The navigation will read - Home, About Us (Our Story merger together), Menu, Location, Contact Us.

Contact Numbers needed are on a copy of the poster that I have been given by the client.

Design wise, they said they would like something with a greater contrast which is more on the red-white color scheme side than the pinkish gradient. Also, they would like it be more crisp, rather than round edges, something clean and clear. The detail on the border of the welcome text will have to go (unless I find a way to integrate it better with the design) In the header, they thought the picture included was not the best choice, they said that something smaller and more refined would perhaps be more fitting than the big, chunky bit of pastry and the strudel.


So, taking these comments on board I have decided to alter the design to suite their needs:



My client are keen on keeping to the style of the poster that they gave me at the beginning of this project. They are keen that style wise, the website should follow the design of the poster. However, instead of creating a website that is white on red I have chosen red on white, this will reduce eye strain when using the website, making the visit to website more comfortable for the user.
As the adapted design is now very white, I have also made a few images where the new design is on a red background, this brings in much more of the contrast that they are after and the overall crispness of the design.
This one is much more in keeping with the design of the poster which will help to maintain consistency within the company.

 This is slight variation on this which has a little less contrast but still maintains the design of the company's poster.
