Architecture Day: Top 3 Designer Casinos

Instigated by the International Union of Architects, World Architecture Day on 4th October celebrates architectural delights around the globe. We've scanned their publicity material and web site and unfortunately have to report back that there are no casinos lauded as architectural delights.

Land-based casinos are not known for their classy design, understatement or minimalist look. They have a reputation for bright lights, bling, 'in your face' design, flashing lights in every direction, garish designs and contrived themes.

Whilst some online casinos try to mirror these design traits others have definitely gone for a more refined look that is tasteful and attractive.

OCR picks out three well designed online casinos.

• Casino King scores points with us because, not only does it have a chic feel to it but the layout is clear and well-ordered making it one of the easiest online casinos to navigate around.
• Eurocity Casino greets players with flash graphics, bringing the excitement of a classy European casino to your screen. It may look snazzy but it also has full functionality and is particularly user friendly too.
• MEcasino has just been redesigned. Once full of primary colors, its new slick black design is now cool and sophisticated. This online casino scores points for the best design improvement.

World Architecture Day may not promote the architecture of any casino buildings around the world but here at OCR we think that the design of online casinos is improving.

There is certainly a veer away from brash, loud designs towards more chic, stylish looks that provide an air of elegance. Classy design makes players feel welcomed and pampered as soon as they enter. So three cheers for OCR's top three 'designer casinos'.
