Is Your Website Helping or Hurting Your Architecture Firm? Your website is more than just a digital portfolio—it’s your firm’s first impression, credibility booster, and lead-generation machine. But too often, architects focus solely on aesthetics while neglecting functionality and strategy. Mark's latest conversation with Jeffrey Ross of CDH explored what makes a great architect website and how to strike the right balance between beauty and business results. Here are a few key takeaways: ? Clear purpose – Define what action you want visitors to take (schedule a call, view your portfolio, etc.). ? High-quality photography – Professional images can make or break your online presence. ? Smart typography – Font choices impact readability, user experience, and overall perception. ? SEO still matters – AI-driven search may be evolving, but strong SEO fundamentals are still key. ? Video & animation trends – Interactive elements and immersive scrolling are shaping modern web design. If your website isn’t converting visitors into clients, it’s time for a rethink.
