Webby Prezzy

I am planning on doing a presentation/demo of HTML5 and some CSS3 for the final project. I am really interested in the way the web works, and the actual code and phrasing of language to make our experience on the web what it is. In my presentation I plan on defining HTML5, and spotlighting the differences to what we have now. I'll look for writings on its effects on dreamweaver and how we will have to re-think the way we make websites a little bit. I'll scour the nerd-blogs to find thoughts on it, hopefully good and bad opinions. I want to stay up on this kind of thing, and I'd like to get a good grasp of where mark-up is going and share it with the class. The secondary element to my presentation will be a synopsis of CSS3 and how this teams up with HTML5 to make such cool things happen. The tertiary element to my prezzy will be a test-run of HTML5 with CSS3 attached, examples of what works in browsers now and what is yet to come. So, if my presentation were an action movie, judging levels of importance of actors, the hero would be HTML5, then the villian CSS3, and finally the hot babe would be the test-run. Savvy?

Wireframe black cell

So I've got my page laid out basically how I planned, but the thing is that I need to set up a line-height amount to make the cells anymore than 2 px, since they have no content in them. Once there is content, the cells will expand. Perhaps I couod have more control over them if i define the width and height of each, with small in motino response but snap-resizing to fit different screen sizes. That is one thing, for this project we are designing for different appliance screens, not someone on a huge monitor computer resizing the window to see if it is completely fluid, like what happens in crits in class. So I am willing to let some of the fluidity go if I can control the page layout a little more...If i have to, that is. No link to my page for this post obviously, and screenshots are pointless i guess. Just some brain-thoughts for ya.

Revision decision

Here are my cleaned up style tyles

Double Revision time!

Here are the revised wireframes, and also here are the Style Tyles for all to see...

One is made more for the grammas that frequent the place, and the other is geared more towards potential smoked sammich eaters and nano-brewpub drinkers.

revised moodboard and wireframes

Here is the revised moodboard. I included more web elements that I want to emulate and some pictures of the store itself and the beer labels that they are using for the "sturgis Haus" brewpub.

Also, here are wireframes for the main page and the "sturgis Haus" page. I decided to combine many of the smaller and non-existant pages together into the main page, with hours of operation, contact info, and coffee lists on the main page instead of spread across four pages. The brew "haus" has pictures of the beer labels I will be using and also pictures of delicious looking smoked pork and beef sandwiches, ooh baby.

I plan on having a mobile and desktop lightbox sizes for information about the specific beer tastes, maybe. I'll be doing some r&d on if that can happen, and I'm going to attempt to push the limits of the 1140 grid system that I used for the blueberry page.
