my website will show the location and menu of Denny's fish and chips

Central scroll icon

as you scroll down this wheel rotates in an interesting graphical feature. it doesn't have much use but is interesting enough to draw in the viewer. I rather like this as a feature, although I feel like it might draw too much attention to itself without having a function, and draws away from more important things.

Solid colour title banner

I like the effect of this top banner, drawing attention to the title and subsequently the navigation menu. I'd like to use something similar as its not too cluttered while still being attractive and looking professional.

Picture of menu

I want to use the idea of having a picture of the physical menu as it gives a sense of authenticity and is clear. It also gives you an impression of what its like at the place. The only problem might be that the menu might look out of place or have the wrong style to fit the rest of the website,

Transparent banner

The transparent banner used here works well because it actually draws attention away from itself, causing the person on the website to look at the rest of what the website has to offer as they can see more of it. It also looks stylish and modern. 

Alternate views

The idea of having multiple versions of the same website to alternate between depending on a users needs is definitely something I want to incorporate to expand the audience through wider usability.

Buttons

These are examples of simple buttons and how we made them, using Photoshop to give them transparent backgrounds and 2 layers, one of which was in grey-scale so when used as a button we can set the hover colour as grey.

Banners and titles

These are examples of simple banners we created in Photoshop to learn about simple effects we can use to make banners look better

Target audience research:

 

The demographic would be in Kings Lynn as this would be the location of the Chip Shop I am making a website for.

In the Kings Lynn Census It shows that there are an almost equal amount of males and females in our demographic (as food is universally needed and enjoyed). Thus I have incorporated both male and female elements, such as rounded edges to the buttons but a bigger emphasis on the red and yellow house colours of which are more masculine colour. To further even it out, the colours are slightly faded and aren't as bright.

Because of the generally universal consumption of Fish and Chips and the fairly spread out age range of Kings Lynn seen in the Kings Lynn Census, I have made the website more simple and intuitive to use so all ranges of age can use it. The text is larger, of a fairly easy to read font, and on easily contrasting colours and therefore is easier to read. The buttons are also bigger and easier to discern, and the navigation buttons follow the page. Also the whole thing is on one page, therefor giving access to all the information straight away and allows for multiple ways to navigate.
