Renovatus, Home Page

Renovatus (Reno-vah-Toose) is latin for
Renovation . They are located in Charlotte, NC and focus their ministries on serving those in the urban areas of the city. They have an appreciation for the arts and a heart for the community-at-large.
The inspiration for this design came directly from the logo colors and the church name. The site itself appears to be "under renovation." Exposed wallpaper patterns (a koi fish pattern that mimic the logo, better seen within a
interior page ) are used as background elements and paint rolled sections block off areas of content.
Texturing was applied to the logo mark to mimic the rest of the design but kept to a minimum so it didn't appear overwhelming or risk damaging the integrity of the original mark.

On one hand I love that this is so not
typical. On another it feels confusing,
almost as if it's two different sites and
just not quite connected. But I love that
this doesn't look like your normal template
site.

@holycowcreative Confused as to what you mean
by two separate sites. As in the home page
vs. interior pages, the left side from the
right, the top from the bottom or the
textured from the clean.interior pages looked awkward and disconnected so I went
ahead and brought it into that area.

@EM I think @hcc was referring to the right
and left halves of the page, i.e. that there
aren't many elements on the page that span
the whole width, generally just ones that
either span the left or right half.

I really love the textures. Do you create
them yourself?

@elisa. I usually start out with a pretty
generic stone texture and filter away. The
paint marks are courtesy of the very handy
Alpha Mask within Fireworks. One of the
greatest features ever.
