Photos of the guest house must be used in the design.
The look and feel of the website must convey the high quality accommodation and atmosphere provided by Casa Velha
The colours used on the website should be be earthy colors to match the tuscan theme- terracotta, olive green, deep browns as well as blues and gold
A website that the client likes the look of is: http://www.avianto.co.za/. Notice how the site is clean and elegant. It doesn't have a strong Tuscan theme, which the new website will need to have.
Here are two websites that provide a feel for tuscany (DO NOT use any images from these two sites in the design). These two links are only given to help show the Tuscan theme:

Home page 3 - caption - "Tuscan guest house"
