No, not the chocolate bar, but close....

Just wanted to post the soft launch of a site ive just done for a bar in Leeds (don't suppose anyone has been?) called Trio (see, it all starts to make sense eventually

)

Anyway, link is www.arcinspirations .com/trio

hope you like the design, and post any errors/comments etc you may have if you've got a spare few mins to cast an eye over it before 'official' launch on thurs.

Cheers!

Alex

mike_m · 31-05-2005, 20:29

slick and dirty mate, nice work

pgo · 31-05-2005, 23:33

Nice!I really love everything above the content columns, I like the content area. My one complaint - the footer - all the text is really hard to read except the links, which stand out more than any other text on the screen.

Joewebber · 01-06-2005, 05:14

Like it. Nice work

Alex · 01-06-2005, 05:19

Thanks for the replies y'all and glad you like the site

I see what u mean about the footer pgo, ill amend the colours when i get back home tonight

Mik · 01-06-2005, 05:41

bit grey.
and I am sure I mentioned the diagonal lines before - DIIIIIIIIIIITCH THEM.

Limbo · 01-06-2005, 05:43

Edited> Nicework, very funky me like

Could do with a section about their playlist - the music is the reason alot of people go there

(was in trio over the weekend - best bar up that way )

Yeah, i`m looking to roll out some kind of live music feed in a phase 2 of the site. Know what u mean though. Sunday nights in trio are the best in Leeds

You there much then? I've probably seen you in there at some point. Got to do the site for zed next, and box and hub....

hahaha was looking at something totally different.
The main typeface is awful - sorry.

Apart from that nice. (bit brown on mac?)

Alex · 01-06-2005, 05:55

yeah, it's the typeface they use across the brand. Their designers sold them some big 'branding' thing, and then i found the font on www.dafont.com

haha. I guess I've got used to it now. Re: the brown, i agree, but if you ever go there, the whole feel is quite loungey and brown. I can make it pink if you'd like tho?

Mik · 01-06-2005, 05:59

haha - just take the tones done 10% or so.

That's the tip of the iceberg... the guy that set those up wants world domination - student loans have a lot to be thankful for

Alex · 01-06-2005, 06:48

haha yeah, you know they own the lounge cinema too? Apparently it's been suggested it's turned into a club no it's been closed down, how great would that be!

emil · 01-06-2005, 06:51

nice. I like it

dixon · 01-06-2005, 09:05

nice i like it...
what made you give the website a dirty feel for a modern bar like that?

Thanks Dixon. If you actaully go to the bar, it's not 'dirty' but the feel is that of an old fashioned lounge bar, interspersed with some modern touches, but fundamentally it works as a chillout lounge bar, despite getting so rammed you can't move on a weekend

so the slightly 'weathered' look is kind of appropriate. The photos in the gallery aren`t too great as depicting it either, as they're all taken when the bar is empty, it's quite a different atmosphere when it's heaving....obviously

Brown · 01-06-2005, 09:38

don't like it - too dark for my liking. also, some of the photo's are a bit blurred.
