A while back, I designed a website for an architecture studio.
The studio was fictional. The thinking behind it wasn't.
I started with one question.
What does someone need to see
before they trust a studio with their home?
Not just the finished rooms.
The decisions behind them.
So every project became a short story.
The site. The challenge. The solution. The result.
A team page, so you know who does the work.
A process page, so the first call doesn't feel like a leap.
That's how I like to work.
Start with what the client needs to feel.
Then let the layout follow.
If your studio needs a site that shows how you think,
I'd love to help.
Starting from what a client needs to feel before the layout is such a mature approach, Lam. Turning each project into a short story of site, challenge, solution and result is lovely framing. Great case study writing.

New project in progress: the website for Adara, a residential architecture and planning practice in London. We'll post updates as the build comes together.
First, the services section on the homepage. As you scroll, the house comes apart floor by floor, and each service opens on the right, from planning advice to building regulations.
Great stuff! Would love to know what the brief looked like. You clearly took it somewhere special.

The dotted heads against such a clean hero is a nice touch. How much of the layout did you have to fix by hand after Claude?
