Web Design Brief
We're looking to refresh our website - cubedhost.org. We are a server provider that specializes in Minecraft servers, as well as voice servers. Our primary goal is to keep the same essential layout but get a more modern, updated, and smooth look; our current site is a bit cluttered and unprofessional, and doesn't lend too well to ease of use.
Our color scheme is blue and white, though the shade of blue can vary. We are happy to experiment with other colors as well, but blue is recognized as our main color. The shades in use on our current site are a good starting point.
We would like the design to be flat and modern, sleek, and clean. Since we provide services relating to Minecraft, some sort of integration with Minecraft themes would be preferable; eg. elements from the game. The design should not be overly professional as we serve primary a young demographic, but it should still convey a sense of professionalism in that our network and infrastructure is solid.
For our logo, we would like a geometric/cube-based design. We would like to see "CubedHost" used within the logo, rather than "3Host" as it is now. A flat design would be preferred with single or two-tone color scheme using blue/black/white and perhaps other small accent colors. An icon/symbol integrated with the logo would suit us very well.
We would love to keep in contact with the winning designer and continue work on both our current website and other websites in the future.
Please email justin@cubedhost.org with any additional questions.

Requirements
Must have
- Required pages:
- Home page with main features and news/updates
- Minecraft page with features and customization options
- Minecraft VPS page, similar to Minecraft page
- Voice servers page with features and customization options
- Dedicated servers page with package listings and features + customization options

- Features area for overview of all included features (such as on current site - see Minecraft)
- Customization options (eg. value sliders) with price display and list of features
Nice to have
- A slider on the front page would be nice, based on HTML elements rather than images as we do not have a graphic designer (utilizing text and background color/texture elements vs fully designed images).
An area for testimonials/quotes from customers
