North Facing

Six pages for an architect, interior designer, photographer or design studio. Home, Work, a project template, Studio, Process, Contact. It is a case study site, not a portfolio wall: each project has a brief, a set of images at full width, a short note on what was involved, and a credit list. Typography carries the whole thing, so it holds up even before the good photographs arrive.

Images are handled properly — responsive srcsets, lazy loading below the fold, and a build step that generates WebP so a page of large photographs does not take ten seconds on a phone. The Process page is a numbered sequence, which is the page that converts enquiries from people who have never commissioned this kind of work before.

Suits a studio with six to twenty projects worth showing. Wrong if you have two hundred images and want a filterable archive, and wrong if you want a shop — there is nothing to sell from here.
