The Concept Goal
Patrons looking up opening hours, events, or visiting details on their smartphones need immediate answers. This design concept imagines a digital presence for The Suirside Inn, a fictional traditional pub, eliminating clutter and maximising mobile speed.
The objective was to create a fast, touch-optimised, and highly atmospheric web interface that loads cleanly across all mobile screens.

Mobile Priority
Local customers are almost exclusively on mobile. I prioritised a "Mobile First" approach, ensuring that finding location info and event details is straightforward, even with poor outdoor signal.
The Colour Strategy
I used a "Guinness-inspired" palette to anchor the design in tradition and evoke the cosy atmosphere of a local pub.

Typography
Headings use Playfair Display, a traditional serif that gives the pub's name and section titles a sense of heritage and craft. Body text is set in Lato — clean and highly legible for menus, opening hours, and event details.
Built for Event Promotion
A pub's biggest draw is what's on this week — live music, sports screenings, quiz nights. The concept includes a dedicated events section and a simple newsletter signup, designed so regulars and passers-by alike can find out what's on and opt in to hear about future nights, rather than relying on a Facebook post that only reaches people already following the page.
