it'seeze Websites of the Month – July

 

A traditional barbershop in Windsor, Zeno’s offers clients a range of high quality services, from cuts and shaves to treatments such as waxing and facials. They were looking to reach new customers and promote their services online, and so contacted their local it’seeze consultant to set up the barbershop’s first website. 

 

Taking inspiration from the hair salon’s slick design, the it’seeze creatives have put together a modern and incredibly stylish site. Designed in dark grey tones to complement the shop’s branding, it also includes baroque style backgrounds, which tie in with the patterned wallpaper that can be seen in the professional photos used throughout the website. 

 

Providing clients with a fantastic insight into the barbershop’s services, staff, and general atmosphere, the site offers potential customers an engaging user experience from the moment they land on it. Enhanced with an array of special effects – such as rollovers, blurring, and zooming - it strikes a compelling balance between visual and written content, displaying need to know information in an attention-grabbing way. 

 

The sophisticated online presence the barbershop was after, the new Zeno’s website provides visitors with a great first impression. 

 

Established by a team of highly trained, professional property investors, Redstart Property is a UK based property investment company that specialises in providing high quality homes for the rental market. They wanted a website to help them attract new investors, and as such required one that would be easily editable, to allow them to keep visitors updated on all their latest projects. 

 

We created a modern, fresh, and full-width design for the Redstart Property site, taking its core inspiration from the company’s logo, with the black, red, grey, and light blue colour scheme used throughout to create a cohesive, branded appearance. 

 

As the website’s main goal is to encourage people to get in touch, the contact details and strong calls to action are shown prominently on every page. The navigation is displayed with lowered opacity on the home page, with the email address, phone number, and social icons presented in their own navigation bar at the top of every other page to emphasise them further. 

 

Enhanced also with fixed image backgrounds, an animated anchor icon, and professional stock photography, the new site provides Redstart Property with a contemporary online presence that exudes professionalism, and is complete with an easy to use website editor that enables them to make regular changes.
