Young Architects is a Christchurch based team with an over 20 year portfolio of award-winning design projects. They deliver creative, inspiring and exquisite spaces for equally adventurous clients.
Beyond pretty pictures and looking to appeal to an increasingly digital savvy clientele, they got together with us to deliver a content-rich solution.
Illustrate expertise in both commerical and residential work, but also allow for the ability to focus on smaller alteration based projects.
As expected in an architectural site- showcase the work through imagery. But unlike peers' web prescences- provide meaningful and helpful content for visitors.
With complete end-to-end code capability here at Pixlbox we cleverly created a hybrid framework/form-based CMS backend to enable Young Architects to manage all aspects of the site...
A custom CMS serves as the client's primary admin interface for adding articles and managing most of the site's editorial style content.
Much like our technical delivery, the design approach was also hybrid. We wanted to present a clean, modern visual theme but balanced with an editorial style- a magazine vibe.
Using stunning project photography and clean lines for the modern feel, we used typography to emulate the easy reading style of print, evening the theme out.
