A homepage that draws you in
The homepage opens with the restaurant's tagline and a full food image, followed immediately by the table booking form — visitors can reserve a table before scrolling.

CafeSehion
A restaurant website where the food leads — and every page ends with a way to book a table.
CafeSehion is a cafe and restaurant. We designed a four-page website — Home, Menu, About, and Contact — with table booking, a structured menu, a video section, and a map, built around warm food photography and an amber visual identity.

Project overview
Four pages with one goal: getting a visitor to book a table.
The site covers Home, Menu, About, and Contact. The homepage leads with the restaurant's identity and a table booking form. The menu presents dishes from starters to drinks. The about page tells the story. The contact page gives directions and a way to get in touch.
In restaurant websites, food photography does the selling — the design's job is to get out of the way and make the booking easy.
The challenge
The design challenge
Restaurant websites have to balance atmosphere and function. Too much decoration and the booking gets buried; too much function and the experience feels transactional. The site needed to feel like the restaurant — warm, inviting, unhurried — while making it easy to reserve a table or browse the menu.
- Food photography had to carry the emotional weight of the first impression.
- The table booking form needed to be prominent without dominating the homepage.
- The menu had to be browsable and appetising, not a text list.
- The site had to work from a mobile as easily as on a tablet or desktop.
UX approach
UX focus — atmosphere first, booking always reachable
Each page is structured to let visitors soak in the restaurant's character and then act — browse the menu, learn about the team, or book a table.
A menu that makes you hungry
The menu page is organised into categories — starters, mains, desserts, drinks — with photography alongside the dishes, so the menu is something to browse, not just read.
Popular items on the homepage
A popular dishes section on the homepage highlights signature items, giving visitors a reason to decide before they have even seen the full menu.
Contact that covers the practical
The contact page includes the booking form, opening hours, a map, and direct contact details — everything a first-time visitor needs to plan their trip.
Selected work
Food-led, booking-focused, across four pages.
The homepage, the menu, and the about and contact pages.
UI and product direction
Design focus — dark wood warmth and amber accents
The visual language takes its cues from the restaurant's physical space: dark wood tones, amber and orange accents, serif headings, and food photography given room to breathe.
- Colour
- Dark brown base with amber and orange accents — warm and inviting, evoking the timber surfaces and candlelight of a well-considered restaurant interior.
- Typography
- Serif headings for character and warmth, paired with clean body text for readability on menus and descriptions.
- Photography
- Food photography is the primary visual element — dishes are shown generously, with space to appreciate the presentation.
- Layout
- Sections alternate between full-width imagery and focused content, giving the site rhythm without feeling repetitive.
Our process
From understanding the problem to a focused product direction.
- 01
Define the four pages
We scoped the four pages — Home, Menu, About, Contact — and agreed the key sections each needed to carry.
- 02
Set the visual direction
We defined a warm, food-led visual identity: dark wood palette, amber accents, serif headings, and food photography as the primary design element.
- 03
Design the homepage and menu
We designed the homepage and menu page first — the two highest-stakes pages — focusing on the booking form placement and the menu's browsability.
- 04
Complete the site
We designed the About and Contact pages, including the table booking form, map, and contact details, completing the four-page system.
Execution
A complete four-page restaurant website
The design covers all four pages of the site, with a consistent visual identity, a table booking form, a full menu structure, a video section, and a map — everything a restaurant website needs to present the experience and convert visitors into bookings.
- Four-page website: Home, Menu, About, Contact
- Table booking form on the homepage and contact page
- Full menu with categories and food photography
- Video section and embedded map
Impact
A brand-ready site that earns the booking
The completed website gives CafeSehion a warm, character-rich online presence that matches the restaurant's identity and gives every visitor a clear, easy path to booking a table.
- Four-page design with consistent visual identity
- Table booking form prominent on two pages
- Full menu with food photography and category structure
- Contact, map, and video for first-time visitors
Closing perspective
Food photography is the design
Restaurant websites reminded us that in some categories, the content is the design. When the photography is strong, the designer's job is restraint: clear layout, warm palette, and a booking path that never gets in the way of the food.
