Three sites.
Open them.
Finished builds, invented businesses. The fastest way to judge someone who builds websites is to look at websites they built, so here are three, in full, with nothing behind a form.
01 / Restaurant · one page
Lalo’s Kitchen
A family restaurant that had a Facebook page and nothing else. The whole brief was: somebody is in the car park, hungry, on one bar of signal, deciding.
Everything on the page serves that moment. The menu is real text, not a PDF. Directions open Maps in one tap. The ordering button sits in the header and stays with you down the page, and because this is a sample it tells you what it would open instead of opening it.
What it demonstrates
- A $300 one page build, the main product
- Menu as readable text on a phone, no download
- Tap to call, tap for directions, tap to order
- Warm and appetising without slowing the page down
02 / Trading community · seven pages
Openbell
An options and futures room with four thousand members and a record nobody outside could see. The brief was to put the proof in front of the paid join instead of behind it.
Seven pages, dark, dense and made to be checked. The record page shows how the headline return is produced, term by term, so a suspicious trader can do the arithmetic. Every losing call is in the same table as the winners, and one of the four analysts is publicly down for the quarter.
What it demonstrates
- A real multi page site where every tab is its own page, not a scroll
- Charts drawn by hand in SVG, no chart library, no tracking
- A twelve month record where every figure reconciles to the same source
- A fixed side rail on desktop that becomes a bottom bar on a phone
03 / Futures room · seven pages
Flat by Close
A four hundred member futures room with one rule and no website at all. Same industry as Openbell, built to share nothing with it, because two clients in the same trade should not end up with the same site.
Cream, editorial, full width, set in a serif. All two hundred and forty eight sessions written down. The worst month is laid out session by session, including the seven red sessions in a row, and the three people who run it each get their own section with their own worst session in it.
What it demonstrates
- Two sites in one industry that share no template, layout or stylesheet
- An editorial look that is still a fast, plain, static page
- A full width layout that does not squeeze into a narrow column
- Numbers generated from one series, so nothing can drift out of agreement
Lalo’s Kitchen, Openbell and Flat by Close do not exist. Every name, number, review and price on them was made up to demonstrate a layout, and every one of those pages says so in a banner at the very top.
I would rather show you three invented businesses with a disclaimer than borrow somebody else’s logo and let you assume they hired me. When a real client ships and is happy to be named, they will replace one of these.
