Mix And Drink Concept
A concept we're playing around with. We want to make a central location for all drink recipes. Import all possible alcohols, liqueurs, etc. and get the greatest collection of all recipes.
This is the initial design proposal...

Looks good.
Great idea for a site and the design is clean and easy to navigate. The attractive illustration adds plenty of interest, too.
-
Thanks Christian! We're going to play around with type a little more to get it a little more legible. It's a bit chaotic right now with all the type.

Great Concept
look great ... the only things that disturb me is the shadow object on glass effect that are less transparant.
-
I agree the reflection could have had less transparency by adding a layer mask and using a black gradient (only the colour black not two colours) and drag it across the area you want to make disappear.

The title / name - doesn't engage me.... sorry - needs more "punch"?
Layout is nice, but will anyone read the text at the bottom on the dark background? Not keen on the title - needs to be more engaging. Illustration is excellent.

Really slick site, hot girl, very clear, so just focus on making it searchable.
Very nice site, but just keep in mind how people search for drinks.
When I go to your website am I going to be looking for an occasion (Christmas, Cinco De Mayo, ect.) or am I looking for the base of the drink (Beer, Vodaka, Wine, ect.). Think about that thought process, of how people want to categorize drink recipes in their mind and how they want to search for them.
Also as a cool money-making bonus, I thought you could feature Sponsored Drinks, so drinks Sponsored by Absolut, made with Absolut. More money :)

Good points! Thanks for the review Brett!

Mix and drink change to one colour
Very very nice design indeed Can't really find very to crit about, only the graphic of Mix and Drink maybe better as just one colour rather than the graduated effect ?

Logo needs work
This is a great design. I will only change the logo and remove or fix the reflection of drinks. They look weird.
Everything else looks amazing. I will like to see the subpages.

Mix and Drink
Not the greatest message but hey! Anyway the design for the logo needs to just be red rather than a gradient of two colours, which DONT work well together.
Everything else is good. Make the reflections less prominent by adding a layer mask and dragging the colour black (only) as a gradient across the reflection layer, thus fading the reflection better and quicker.

Imrpove the logo so it is more appealing and distinctive
Overall very attractive. Nitpicking, but ...
I agree with others that the logo is not quite right. Grey is not a color I would associate with a tasty beverage. The rest of the page has a fun feel, but the logo does not.
The illustration of the woman is well done and attractive, but perhaps not so appealing to women viewers of the site. Depends on the desired audience. It communicates to me that your intended audience is male. No problem if it is, just stating what the graphic implies to me. Not a big deal, especially since the illustration is well done.
I like the multiple ways to search, and the drink of the day idea. I would visit this site and give it a try.
I believe "Recipies" in header should be spelled "Recipes."

maybe a darker grey footer
Nice concept, very nice reflection, very well done page scheme, like the typography of the menu although I don't like the logo and the tagline (typo and concept)

replace that beer mug with liquor bottle
illustrated lady and drinks are great but maybe changing them to photographs would be worth testing. http://www.istockphoto.com/stock-photo-1579940-young-woman-holding-red-cocktail.php

for men not for women....
I do like to drink, but the lady is not appealing to me, a bit too - how can i put it - sleazy, cheap...Like she works behind central station, if you know what i mean:) Do like the design though. I miss a taller champage-look-a-like glass on the right. The beer mug is too masculin. Overall it appeals to men not to women, I think....
-
agreed. for men, not women. might have a 'sign in page' where you ask what sex then cater with a hot male for women and this for men.

The balnk area below the search bar
Looks great. Bold, Clean and well thought. Just a few points but I am really not sure if they are relevant or not. The go button needs to be more prominent, Build me a drink is looking misaligned, the search area is looking very lonely, Please tell me if conceptwise I am wrong

the AND to &
Overall very nice. The illustration really pops and is a good centerpiece for the design.
Only thing I don't like is some of the typography. Mainly in the Logo (and maybe that's what you already had to work with) I would love to see the "AND" as an ampersand to add some curves to break up the rigid text. The straight, rigid text is a good compliment to the very curvy illustration, but it needs some more curves somewhere in there so there isn't TOO much contrast.
Very nice.

Another lady photo.
Well but my point of view is specialization in certain category will be easier to target your customers,then build on that.

male/female versions of the illustration
The illustration itself is very nice, though quite suggestive and I think women might tire of seeing it every time they visit. Perhaps it could be rotated with an equally attractive male version? If it's a question of one sex or the other, the association of a man as "friendly bartender" is fun and approachable and could work well in place of the woman.
The typography needs a little attention (headings aside). Enlarging the font or selecting a heavier one would bring in contrast. The illustration seems to overpower (or distract from - I can't decide) the content.
You're heading in the right direction! Terrific idea for a site as well.

Nice work. Will Scarlett appear throughout the site?
Not sure about the sections. The nomenclature is inconsistent.

Move the search box
Depending on the resolution, the search box might be below the fold
Nice design though

Logo
I really like the idea so much but i will suggest some changes. The logo is not adeguate to the design, you will "loose" it looking at the illustration so you need to do something more attractive for it to match the so intensive design.
I don't like much the other illustration, the one of the glasses with cocktail beer. The beer seem a little to simple try to add some particular like now, it seem like a beer with cappuccino cream on it :) Maybe add some waterdrops on the glass. You put the 3 glasses on a 3d space and is ok it gives you depth, but they still seem to be a little flat to me.
The menu: I don't like to see the words after GlassWare, Ingredient, Buildmeadrink with different size. Try to make them same size and try to align all in a different way.
Overall i really like all the project, and would like to see it working so, if you have an url to test it, give us!!!

Try some of the skin tone in the logo
It all looks pretty good, but the logo bothers me a bit. The tension between the red & gray touching is a bit jarring.
Maybe try adding a ripple to the "drink line" running through the type & using the skin tone from the woman instead of the gray for the type.

Logo
The only thing i don´t like is the logotype, maybe if you change the way you used the colors
But the design in general is great.

The Red Colored "Ware" and "Me" and "Drink"
Love the design! Simple and chic ! The large navigation on top look excellent. The only thing I am not a fan of is the middle navigation where random words are red - seems like there isn't consistency in it.

The colors maybe.
I love the drawing of the woman, you did a good job on the site, but the drinks look a bit too cartoony.

Lightning
Looking good! congrats.
The only thing i would had was a lightning to the ground where the glasses are.
I this way you could give a mor "glassy" look to the reflection area.

Reflections do not look right, and font-sizes don't work
Nice job. Everything in the gray area at the bottom needs more work though. It could look more interesting if each drink in the Top10 had a little gaphic/icon and bigger fonts. Also, I agree with others that the reflections are not well done and take away a bit from the professionalism of the design. Otherwise, attractive homepage.
-
I have usability issues with the site. The illustration takes all the attention. The call to action text is hard to read due to the two tone text.
Maybe reversing the logo and text will help.
Also the call to action needs to be a lot more prominent. The design needs to help the users with their next step.

great and could work better
if you:
- use something better than gray
- box bullet explanations in white
- move woman a little to the left (25px?) glass is too close to text
- lose "welcome" and go straight to what can we get you?
- drinks look different in style to girl/glass

Looks pretty good
I personally love the illustration... although it might be a tiny bit too sexy. A cute girl can be appealing both to men and women, but if it's too sleazy then some women might start to dislike it. If she looked a tiny bit cuter/classier then I'm sure it would work great.
I agree with everybody else that you need to hit the drawing board for the name and the logo.
As much as I love beer, get rid of the beer mug. This website is for mixed drinks, no?
-
Its really good, organized, but i think that maybe it goes better with a picture of a real woman not with a draw but its really good, congratulations.
-
Looks like a great site! Love the "daily drink."
