"wine—art" first review
I'm a French UX Designer and Art Director, originating from Poland and currently living in Canada. I see every project I am involved in as an opportunity to go further, providing my clients and employers with quality materials and a great working relationship.
The visual design is not bad, but everything here misses a big idea, some character...
This whole site was designed for a small screen, and doesn't fit big ones very well: images don't scale well, each section is too spaced out from each other, the way the text is stuck to the image vs plenty of space on its right/left looks a bit weird. The logo in the header is not even centered (and not clickable).
The choice of fonts is good, yet, the overall redish / greyish / brownish colors are being boring throughout every single pages.
Some sections look disabled, but.... Allright, ok, got it after I clicked them..........
Concerning the contents, it definitely lacks imagery
I don't get the 90 degrees rotated menu in the bottom right, and seems to have been designed that way for the sole purpose of appearing trendy. Could have been cool, but the rest doesn't follow...

Hello,
Thanks for the review; I appreciate your honest opinion, even though it seems the character of the design does not seem to fit you too wel.
Just a correction: the logo is in fact clickable, just not on the homepage because you're already there. But I've just added fixed that, for the sake of consistency.
The menu is designed to be not actively present, to encourage reading the content. We were happy with it's current appearance; it's a pity you don't feel the same.
Anyway, thank you again for reviewing; even though I don't agree with all your opinions, this keeps us sharp as designers/developers!
Cheers
Daniel
