Marme is a woodworking and renovation shop from l’Île de Ré on the western coast of France. Its website, developed and designed by sphynx.studio, reflects the brand’s attention to detail and unique natural charm.
The website opens with a single-screen page featuring a hi-res photo of triangular roofs that, with the blue sky backdrops, forms an image akin to a modern painting with its geometric precision. It is framed with a white negative space whose left side houses a few navigation links.
The menu remains on the page as the user browses through an enviable selection of pages featuring their past works. The pages primarily consist of images organized in a 3-column grid and showcase Marme’s various interior and exterior solutions.
The simplicity and refinement of this particular architecture web design results in an interactive portfolio that is easy to follow and understand.
Likewise, these basic principles of good architecture web design are applied to the mobile version of the website, where the main menu and branding switch to the top of the page.
