Concept

This is a concept project, made to show how we’d plan, design and build work like this. There’s no real client behind it.

N° 01 · Architecture studioWhat we set out to do

The brief

The imagined client is a small architecture practice whose best projects sit in a PDF portfolio. Inquiries arrive through a bare contact form with no context. The brief is to let the buildings do the selling and make it easy for the right clients to get in touch.

DecisionsWhy it looks the way it does

Three choices
that shaped it.

01

Photos first

Every project opens with a full-width image. Captions and facts sit in small type underneath, so the work gets the room.

02

One clear next step

Each project page ends with “Start a similar project”, which opens the form with the project type already filled in.

03

Easy to keep fresh

Each project is one entry in the CMS, with photos, a paragraph and a few facts. Adding one doesn’t need a developer.

Tell us what you’re building.

A few lines about the project are enough. You’ll hear back from the people who’d do the work, with a fixed quote to follow. Rather talk first? Pick a time that suits you.
