Website for an architecture practice
A concept site for a fictional Bristol practice that behaves like a measured drawing: survey lines, a live crosshair cursor and work that opens like a window.

How I'd approach it.
The work leads
Architects are judged on their buildings, so the site gets out of the way: big images, a project index you can scan in seconds, and a page for each project that reads like a short essay.
Motion with a reason
Every animation comes from the drawing board: survey lines drawing in, a crosshair that measures in millimetres, images opening from a single line like a window. It's memorable without being a gimmick.
Built to be added to
Each project is one entry of data: name, facts, text and photos. Adding a new building builds its card, its page and its place in the index automatically.
Fast and accessible underneath
The motion switches off for anyone who has asked their device to reduce it, images are sized for each screen, and every page works with a keyboard.
