Letting the buildings do the talking.
A residential architecture practice with fifteen years of houses and almost no website. The brief was one sentence: make it calm.

Approach
Architecture sites tend to be either a wall of thumbnails or a slideshow nobody finishes. We built each project as a short, scrolling story: one wide photograph, the plan, a handful of details, and a paragraph from the architects in their own words.
- One typeface, generous white space and a muted palette taken from concrete and timber.
- A project template the office fills in themselves: photographs, drawings, area, year, location by neighbourhood only.
- Images served in modern formats and sized per device, so the heavy photography still loads quickly on a phone.
Result
The office now publishes a project in an afternoon. Most new enquiries mention a specific house from the site, which is exactly what the partners hoped for.
