Three floors, four bars, one website

Three Lamps is a brand new bar and restaurant in the heart of Swansea. A full refurbishment has taken place over the past year and the owner and team have created a spectacular venue unlike anything else in the city. Spread over 3 floors, the Three Lamps consists of a traditional bar and restaurant on the ground floor, a micro brewery and live music bar on the second floor and a roof top terrace bar on the third floor. This incredible venue needed an incredible website and One Time Creative was delighted to be chosen to complete the job.

The main task was to ensure the website catered for multiple audiences that would be visiting the establishment. It was vitally important that the homepage would be attractive for a family looking for a restaurant, as it would be for a group of friends looking for a night out. On top of this we also had audience groups including city shoppers wanting a coffee, students looking for live music and party groups of all ages wanting to book different bar locations.

The homepage was designed to use images that would be attractive for the main audience groups and multiple button options to lead people off to the areas of interest. A header menu bar was created with simple options of Food, Drink and Music, with sub-menus under each heading. All of this combined ensures visitors quickly and easily obtain the information they need, while also getting a good feel of what the Three Lamps offers.

Further pages will soon be added to the website including an interesting write-up on the history of the building, which was regularly visited by writer and poet Dylan Thomas and then later bombed during the second world war.

We are delighted with the end result for this website and look forward to working with the Three Lamps over the coming months and years to promote this incredible venue.

New Website for leading Jaguar specialist

With their 25th anniversary this year, MisterMatic wanted to update their web presence with a new website and fresh new look. As the leading independent Jaguar specialist in South Wales, they required a website that could show the full range of services they provide, while also making it easy for customers to contact them.

The new website includes an updated logo using a distinctive green, that then becomes the accent colour on each of the pages. 

It was important to show the friendly local team that are based at MisterMatic, so as well as including many images of the team at work, a 'Meet the Team' page was added, with a picture and short bio on each member of staff. Full details of the apprenticeship programme was also included, which is personally taught by the owner and was how the majority of staff started with the company.
