THE BRIEF

What it is for, and who it suits.

A visual direction for places sold on the feeling of arriving. Linen and evergreen, a soft serif headline with one italic phrase, and frosted glass laid over full-bleed landscape — a floating navigation island, and a booking bar in the hero. What keeps it from being one more rental template is that each page is built on its own device, so a guest moving from the house to the rates never reads the same layout twice.

  • Holiday rentals and private villas
  • Boutique hotels and guesthouses
  • Retreats, lodges and chalets
  • Anyone whose photography has to do most of the selling

DESIGN NOTES

The decisions behind the look.

01

Every page has its own device.

The home page is a photographic bento, the house is alternating editorial, one room at a time, and the other pages each get a structure of their own. A visitor moving through the site never feels they are reading the same template five times, which is the thing a rental site most often gets wrong and the first thing to keep if you extend it.

02

Every figure is marked as a placeholder.

Rates, capacity, distances and travel times live in one config file read by the rates, booking and getting-here pages, so a figure exists once. Each one is printed with a data-placeholder attribute, so a single search of the built site finds every number still waiting to be made true.

03

The wood never carries words.

The warm wood accent reaches only 2.5:1 on linen, so it is kept for decoration. Where warm text is wanted, a darker wood ink takes over at 5.4:1 on white. The palette keeps its warmth and the type stays readable, which is a choice made in the tokens rather than left to whoever edits the page next.

04

A request, not a booking engine.

The bar in the hero carries the dates and the guest count to the booking page in the URL, where they prefill a request form, and the hosts reply. There is no availability calendar to integrate and nothing to run, which is how most small places actually take a booking.
