    Hi everyone!
    We are thinking about our site www.chamonixfirst.com/en/home/ and thinking about a full re design

    We want something more professional as we provide transfers to and from Geneva to Chamonix but don't want anything to formal.....
    I know this sounds contradictory but i don't no how else to put it.

    We think our site is friendly but just lacks the professional edge

    What do you guys think. Do you have any ideas of sites that we can put forward to our designer to work from for ideas?

    Thanks in advance

    Ohh and 1 more thing - we dont have a company logo, i have tried a few designs but to be honest they look rubbish, ideas welcome :)

    yeah, change it. Background color is not attractive. Also you can hire some designers to make your company logo.

    I like your design. But I suggest if you change your background color and
    you should use green, hope it will be more beautiful.

    I would suggest change your background but keep it to a theme of something of what you do. I am reading your site you do transfer of people going on a trip or to the airport? So with that being said think of a background of a few things here is some ideas. A nice theme here are some examples from me:
    Ex 1: say from the left hand side of the background a city- buildings, skyscrapers etc. then 4 to 6 inches after that maybe a neighborhood houses and then half way to the middle or to the right where ever the drop off point would be airport etc. so imagine when they look at the background if someone is corporate and needs transport from their office ( city, buildings etc.) or if they live in a neighborhood (house) then they see both examples. That is just an example but you can see the visioning here.
    Ex 2: keep the color (blue) but don't make the mountains cartoonish looking (make real mountains). Imagine who do you want your customer to be? If it is corporate or someone professional (someone from the city or a working professional that is going to use your service) then you want a corporate feel for it. Why? because this is what they see all day corporate logos, corporate signs, everything they see daily has a corporate feel to it. So match what they see. If your customer would be a more relaxed crowd then make a back ground that is relaxed - hence the blue background maybe BUT I would try to tie your background somehow into what you are doing. Without having to say what you do. I hope this makes sense.
