Novilance

Hospitality case study

Ember & Oak

A cinematic restaurant website concept with an ember-particle hero, scroll-lit storytelling, pinned dish carousel, animated menu and reservation flow. Designed and built by Novilance.

The challenge

Restaurant sites often reduce atmosphere to a PDF menu and a phone number. The goal was to deliver the warmth of the room online and drive reservations.

Our solution

We created a cinematic hero with floating embers, a scroll-linked text reveal, a pinned horizontal signature-dish carousel, a tabbed menu and a reservation form with guest stepper, time chips and an animated confirmation.
