How would you go about doing this site?

Hi,

If you look at uber site, how would you go on about doing the layout of the site? Any patterns?

I though my way on how to do it, which is to just do a normal layout, and then just add the necessary stuff to make the effect. Was wondering what you woudl do.

I would take an iterative approach, starting with a high-level mobile layout - creating empty or placeholder content blocks using a cross-browser front-end framework like Bootstrap or Foundation, adjust the flow of those blocks responsively across device widths, and being mindful of the semantic layout of the page. Then I would lay in more realistic text and image content adjusting fonts and spacing according to the design spec and test across devices. Finally, I would wire in behaviors / elements that change based on state and advanced things like the parallax scrolling effect.
