Brief Summary

Our client has set himself a challenge to break a Land Speed Record in a jet powered car which is being custom designed. This is potentially going to be a high profile site and therefore needs to appeal to its target audience. Ideally the website should portray high speed, challenge, man & machine.

Refer http://jetblack.webz.co.nz for the logo and an image of the car. Although the brand name is Jetblack, the website does not necessarily have to incorporate too much black.

Brand Name
Jetblack

  • Clean, professional and dynamic look and feel.
  • Simple but effective colour scheme (professional)
  • Depth in terms of menu’s and headers
  • Site must be interesting and enjoyable to return to but in a serious way; Think Formula 1
