Field Notes, in one sentence.

An original website for an imagined architecture studio called Field Notes, shown to explain how we shape a site: one sentence and three paths.

CH 01

The brief

An imagined studio, a slower pace.

Field Notes designs houses, interiors and small public buildings. Its work is quiet, and its old website was busy. The invented brief: say what the studio does in one sentence, show a few places, and make it easy to ask a focused question.

The page is an olive panel, a line drawing of a house and a lot of room around the words.

CH 02

The approach

One sentence, three paths.

We start with what a visitor needs to understand in the first screen, then give them three places to go. Nothing else competes with those paths.

  • 01

    Work

    A few places, with the choices, materials and limits behind each one.

  • 02

    Approach

    A short note on how the studio listens and works with the people who will use the space.

  • 03

    Enquire

    One form, with a note on timing and what the studio takes on.

CH 03

What it shows

The first screen, composed.

CH 04

For a real client

What it would take.

A real website needs more than a composition. These are the things we would need from you, and the things you would get back.

  • A real audience and offer to write for, with your own words and photographs
  • A page plan agreed with you before any design starts
  • Content you can maintain after launch, and a launch checklist
  • Accessibility and keyboard checks on the finished site
  • A price agreed after a 20-minute call, written down before work begins
