Project Goals: A trendy new club in Newport Beach needed a website to showcase their unique blend of sophisticated haut design and innovative Mexican dishes. Definite care had to be taken to integrate their minimalist design aesthetics while showcasing their beautiful interiors and food shots.
Highlights: I love the small silver cactus leaf in the lower-left corner. To keep from hiding this, I used a hack-ish transparent pixel map for the left-column info-boxes, so the cactus shines through. IE6 compatibility with no fuss, muss, or PNG replacement.
