New Homepage: video is used to create a dynamic teaser that draws visitors in to learn more while main nav is consolidated for ease of use
Previous Homepage: rotating banner is cluttered while verbose main nav trails off and offers too many choices
New Footer: pairing down content allows for a cleaner, more legible footer that also mirrors main nav
Previous Footer: too much content looks visually cluttered and distracts the visitor while nav is too verbose
New Accommodations: consolidating all room info to one page is easily browsable while two column layout and cleaner typography make parsing simple
Previous Guest Rooms: block text is difficult on the reader’s eye while information is duplicated for each room on a separate page
New Restoration Process: the three column layout eases eye strain while galleries above and below the fold break up reading and evidence content
Previous Restoration: this page contains a lot of text that is very hard to read in a block layout
