01 / The Brief

A website showcasing holiday rental properties in Sicily. The client required an attractive website that above all gave users a rich impression of the apartments and their location.

02 / Approach

I felt the success of the website would depend on the quality and visibility of the apartment and location images. Large images are therefore the prevalent feature across the home page and parallax apartment pages.

03 / Design

Aesthetically I was inspired by vintage tourist posters of the 1950s and '60s with their attractive use of typography and images.

Two properties are featured. This in part informed my choice of two prevailing colours — a sandy yellow and sunny blue — suggestive of Sicilian sunshine, sea and beaches.
