Web Design for Architects

Yes. We hand over a templated project workflow — drop in images, write the narrative, tag the typology, add credits — so a new case study goes live in an afternoon without touching code. Keeping the portfolio current becomes routine rather than a standing guilt.

Usually, yes. A homeowner and a developer read a portfolio differently, so we typically organise by typology with distinct entry points, while keeping a single coherent practice identity. Each audience finds its own proof without wading through the other's projects.

Each project carries its own recognition and full credits — photographer, builder, consultants — and we roll practice-wide awards into your profile. Recognition sits beside the work it belongs to, where a deciding client actually encounters it, rather than on an orphaned trophy page.

It varies with portfolio size and scope, but we quote fixed prices after a scoping conversation, so the figure is known before work begins. For a practice whose average commission runs well into six figures, the site typically costs less than the fee on a single small project.

Usually six to ten weeks. Design and engineering move quickly; the pacing item is almost always content — selecting projects, gathering photography and writing narratives. We drive that process with you rather than waiting on it, which is how timelines hold.

Referrals still open your website before calling, so the site matters regardless. But search matters more than most practices assume: clients genuinely do search for architects by city and building type, and the practices that rank collect enquiries their equally talented competitors never see.

A few honest paragraphs per project — brief, constraints, response — is enough. That is worth more than the imagery alone twice over: clients read it as evidence of judgement, and search engines read it as reason to rank you. We help write it if words aren't your medium.

Yes, and it often should. Process material — early sketches, sections, physical models — shows the thinking that photographs cannot, and clients respond to it strongly. We design project templates flexible enough to weave drawings and photography into one narrative.

Yes. Three projects presented deeply — with narrative, drawings and strong photography — read better than fifteen presented thinly. We design the structure so it looks complete today and absorbs each new completion effortlessly, letting the site grow with the practice.

It is designed there first. A large share of portfolio browsing happens on phones and tablets — often in the evening, often shared between partners — so galleries, narratives and enquiry paths are built and tested for touch and small screens before desktop even enters the conversation.

We migrate everything worth keeping — imagery, project information, any press — into the new structure, and take the opportunity to fill gaps like missing credits or absent narratives. Nothing of value is lost, and the old site stays live until the new one launches.
