The brief
Who it’s for. What it needs to do.
Give a local café a place people can get to know.
Planning a café visit is quick, and the roasting story takes longer. Millbrook makes room for both, with clear pages for the menu and directions and photographs for the feel of the place.
This is a fictional business, and everything it says about itself was written for this sample.
Design decisions
A closer look at the choices behind the pages.
Balance the offering and the atmosphere
On the menu page, a grid gives each part of the offering its own place. The homepage splits between words and a photo, and sharp buttons with a compact header give it a livelier feel.
Make room for the café’s character
The gallery’s mosaic shows more of the room than one photo can. The roasting story has its own About page, and the menu and directions are always in the navigation.
The visitor’s path
