London's Hoxton may be synonymous with 'hipsters', but this beautiful site is for everyone.
The Hoxton is a chain of hotels based in London, with further establishments opening in New York, Paris and Amsterdam in 2016. Its website does a great job of communicating the fun and quirky nature of the hotels through the use of beautiful lifestyle photography , video, bold typography and a vibrant, energetic colour palette.
Within the overarching branding, each hotel is allowed to have its own personality. The Holborn is presented in greyscale , while Shoreditch is shown in muted hues.
How it was made
The site was designed by in-house designer Alex Prior, while Ketchup Digital in Glasgow took care of development . "At The Hoxton, we always like to do things a little differently, that goes for the website too," says Prior.
"We wanted an accessible and happy design that gave people the same feeling they have when they enter our hotels: open and honest."
Prior goes on to emphasise that the team was keen to integrate video into the site (with more to come), as well as tools such as Google Maps Business view. Integrated into the site is a very clear, concise and simple booking form – it has to be one of the easiest I've ever used. The structure hierarchy works well as a responsive system, and is equally comfortable to use on handheld devices.
Another great aspect is how the main navigation for the site has been used as the main homepage feature. The user is presented with the words 'Sleep, Eat, Work, Play', and hovering over one will trigger a full-page image.
These page titles are large, clickable areas, making it easy for users to find what they need without sacrificing the beauty of the site.
