Our client, the owner of a clothing shop located in Odiham village in Hampshire, wanted a clean and attractive website to show off the products stocked and encourage people to visit the shop. The shop already had a colour theme from the soft blue paintwork used on the exterior as well as an attractive logo with a striking typeface and leaf motif. These elements were my starting point for the design of the site header and creating a framework for the site content: text and photographs.

Because the aim is to encourage visits to the shop itself I used some exterior shots of the store on the home page so passers-by would recognise it as well as prominently displaying the shop address and opening hours, making sure people know when to visit as well as where to visit.

The site has pages dedicated to products stocked for women, men and children and these pages have a series of small photos to illustrate the product types, these can be updated as new product photos are taken. As the nature of fashion is ever-changing it was important to allow the site photos to be updated regularly as styles change.
