01The brief
What it had to do
A neighbourhood barbershop that lives on walk-ins and regulars. People find it on their phones, often a block away, and decide in seconds. The site had to feel like the shop and make booking the obvious next step.
02What we built
Inside the concept
- A home page with a slowly turning 3D barber pole and a sticky "Book a chair" bar
- Services and a full price list, also as a printable PDF
- Online booking, a barbers page and a membership page
- A gallery of cuts, a journal and a reviews page
- A visit page with the map, hours and directions
03Design decisions
Colour and type
Near-black with one brass accent, so prices and the booking button are the brightest things on screen. Tall condensed headings echo old shopfront lettering.

Lighthouse 12.8.2, mobile preset, measured on 30 October 2026 against a copy of the concept served locally. SEO is held back on purpose: every concept is set to "noindex" so it never competes with real businesses in search.
