Web help for South Melbourne studios and firms.
South Melbourne has architects, design studios and professional firms in its old warehouses and terraces. Their sites are portfolios, and portfolios have to load fast and stay current.
Business in South Melbourne
Around Clarendon Street and South Melbourne Market there are architecture and interior design practices, creative studios, professional services firms, and the traders and cafés that serve them. For a studio, the website is mostly a portfolio. It needs to look exceptional and be easy to add projects to.
The common problem is a beautiful site that nobody on the team can update, or that loads very slowly because of project photography. We fix image handling, move content into a CMS the team can use, and add things like a careers page or a project filter, without changing a design the studio chose carefully.
What we watch for
- Design integrity: fixes must not change a carefully chosen layout
- Large project photography that needs careful compression
- A CMS the studio can use without a developer
- Credits, awards and project details kept accurate
