The project

A portfolio that lets the buildings speak, with case studies written for clients rather than other architects.

Website & art direction

The brief

Arlo Kade's buildings photograph beautifully, but their site read like an awards submission. Private clients couldn't tell what working with the practice was like or what it cost.

What we made

A quiet, image-led website with case studies built around the client's story: the site, the brief, the budget and how the house is to live in.

  • Art direction for two new shoots
  • Case study structure and plain-language writing
  • A website with a simple project archive
  • An enquiry form that asks the questions architects need answered

What happened next

Five new private commissions in six months, most of them mentioning a specific case study in their first email.

Clients used to tell us they loved the photos but didn't know what we actually did. The new site answers that before they call.
