WEBSITE DESIGN REVIEW — JULY 2026
Three design directions for the new weplusdesign.com. All three share the same content — projects, studio film, story, and inquiry form — but each offers a distinct experience. Open each one and browse as a visitor would.
Everything here is a starting point. All images, placements, and copy are placeholders drawn from the current live site — any of it can change. And the directions aren't all-or-nothing: elements from one option can be mixed and matched with another.
Photography leads. A full-screen studio film opens the site, projects unfold in a slow horizontal strip, and every page moves with an editorial, film-like pace.
- FULL-SCREEN HERO FILM
- HORIZONTAL PROJECT STRIP
- FOUNDER PROFILES
Restrained and timeless, like walking a gallery. Framed imagery on a calm ground, generous white space, and a lightbox for studying each photograph up close.
- FRAMED, GALLERY-STYLE LAYOUTS
- IMAGE LIGHTBOX WITH ZOOM
- CALM, TIMELESS PACING
The boldest of the three. Projects take over the whole screen as full-bleed slideshows, navigated by cursor and swipe — the closest thing to standing in the rooms.
- FULL-SCREEN PROJECT SLIDESHOWS
- CURSOR & SWIPE NAVIGATION
- WORK INDEX OVERLAY
- Custom preloader sequences that open each site
- Custom Vimeo player for the studio film and project films
- Custom zoom pointer that launches the image galleries
- Left / right directional pointers for the slideshows on Option C
- Slow ken-burns motion on still photography
- Full-screen work index and menu overlays
- Project inquiry form on every contact page
Whichever direction is chosen, the final site will be fully responsive and optimized for mobile, with enhanced SEO and GEO — structured data and local signals that make the studio discoverable both in search results and in AI-generated answers.
