Aloha! We recently redesigned the website for Na Leo Pilimehana, an award-winning
female Hawaiian group, and we're so excited about its launch! To bring Hawaii to
life, we used traditional Hawaiian tribal patterns, plumeria flowers and the teal blue
and sand brown colors of the beach. With vibrant images of Hawaiian scenery and a
simple interface, we effectively showcased Na Leo's story and top albums, making it
easy for fans to learn more about the band and purchase their favorite songs and CDs.
Experience a true Hawaiian paradise here.
