Classic Architecture Portfolio Website

I want a timeless, elegant online home for my architectural work—something that instantly communicates craft and credibility. The site’s main goal is to showcase my portfolio, so polished project galleries sit at the heart of the build. Around those galleries I also need space for concise service descriptions and a dedicated section for client testimonials to reinforce trust with new visitors. Visually, I’m after a classic, refined look: generous white space, balanced typography, subtle animations, but nothing overly minimalist or flashy. The design should feel as thoughtfully detailed as the buildings it presents, and look equally good on desktop, tablet, and phone. Core expectations • Fully responsive website delivered live on my domain • Easy-to-update back-end (WordPress, Webflow, or a similarly intuitive CMS—open to your suggestion) • Structured project gallery templates so I can add future work without breaking the layout • Integrated testimonial module and clear services page • Page-load speed and basic on-page SEO considered from the outset • Handover session or concise guide covering routine updates and image sizing Send me a brief outline of how you’d approach the build, the tools you prefer, and a rough timeline. I’m ready to move quickly once we agree on direction.
