Baobos is a family-run Chinese restaurant located in my hometown of Vancouver, BC.
Their visual identity was designed by the talented Rose + Co. based in Victoria. The bright colours follow the design of the restaurant's original 1960s interior, with a palette of neutrals accentuated by a vibrant coral.
Overall, the owners of Baobos wanted this contemporary but nostalgic aesthetic to come through in their web design as well.
I was asked by the client to help bring their website in line with the changing demographics of the neighbourhood.
Since mobile is crucial for the younger generation, I created a fully responsive website that would help the company stand out from its competitors and attract new customers.
The website's friendly, welcoming aesthetic reflects the warmth of the comfort food you find at Baobos. By using friendly copy and subtle animations, I was able to bring those same feelings of familiarity that one experiences at the restaurant.
