Booking Site Concepts by Industry

Six design directions for different kinds of booking. Every business here is fictional, and none of these is a client site.

We do not have client case studies to show, so instead of borrowing someone else's work we drew these concepts. Each one is a direction for a fictional business, chosen to show how the booking flow changes with the type of service. The screens are drawn in code for this page; the names and addresses are invented.

Six concepts, six kinds of booking

  • Salon and beauty: Linden & Loom Studio

    The booking flow starts with the service menu, grouped into cuts, colour and treatments, each with a duration and a starting price. The customer then picks a stylist or "first available". Colour services over two hours carry a deposit, and the policy sits above the payment button in two plain sentences.

  • Health and wellness: Northfern Physio and Yoga

    Two paths from the first screen: new patients book an assessment, returning patients book a follow-up. The form asks for a name, contact details and a time, nothing clinical. Reminders mention the clinic and the time, not the treatment. Yoga classes use capacity and a waitlist.

  • Fitness and training: Ironpine Training

    A weekly timetable with filters for coach and class type. Each class shows whether places remain, and a full class offers the waitlist or the next session with space. Class packs are explained before purchase, including how late cancellations draw down a pack.

  • Consulting: Harbourline Advisory

    Video calls with clients across Canada. Times appear in the visitor's own zone with the zone named, a short pre-call questionnaire follows the booking and the confirmation carries the call link and a calendar file with the correct zone. Paid sessions use a hosted payment page.

  • Home services: Tidegate Home Care

    A postal code check comes first, so people outside the service area find out before choosing a time. Bookings use morning and afternoon arrival windows rather than exact times, and larger jobs switch to a request-a-quote path instead of instant booking.

  • Clinic: Maplestone Massage Therapy

    Customers choose a treatment length and a therapist. Therapist profiles show only details the clinic provides and can verify. Two therapists share one room, so the booking rules block the room as well as the person, and a test week confirms they never overlap.

What the concepts have in common

  • Prices include any mandatory fees when first shown1.
  • Forms collect only what the booking needs2.
  • The booking path works with a keyboard and screen reader, following the W3C date picker pattern3.
  • Confirmations and reminders stay about the booking and include a change link.
  • Times carry a named time zone wherever a customer could be elsewhere.

The concepts are static drawings. To try a keyboard-accessible calendar and time picker, open the booking demo. It is a demonstration only and books nothing.
