La Cave d'Antoine

A village wine bar near Turin, and what its website could look like.

Demonstration project. This site was designed on the studio's own initiative, from public information: it was not commissioned by the venue and is not its official website.

Context

La Cave d'Antoine is a wine bar in Druento, in the province of Turin. Like many businesses of that size, it exists online only through a Google listing and an Instagram account: pages it does not own, where it chooses neither the order, nor the tone, nor what gets shown first.

Design decisions

The venue's own register first: Cormorant Garamond headings, an ivory and wine-red palette, an arched hero image, and plain Italian writing — « Ci beviamo un calice ? » rather than a sales pitch. Scroll reveals, parallax and the menu are hand-written in JavaScript, with no framework.

What was delivered

Four static pages — Al bancone, La Cave, Passa a trovarci, Note legali — plus a 404 page. Self-hosted fonts, no third-party request on load, and a Google map that loads only after an explicit click from the visitor: no tracker before consent.
