The Problem
Architectural firms rely heavily on visual storytelling, but high-resolution imagery often leads to slow load times and poor SEO ranking. The client needed a platform that could showcase large-scale project renders without compromising on mobile performance or Core Web Vitals.
Technical Solution
To solve the performance-vs-quality trade-off, I utilized **Next.js Image Optimization** to serve WebP formats dynamically based on the user's device. The entire site is compiled using **Bun.js** for ultra-fast build times and deployed on **Cloudflare’s Global Edge Network**. This ensures that users from any geographic location experience sub-second page transitions.
Key Modules
A scalable page structure that allows for the easy addition of new architectural projects via structured JSON data, keeping the design consistent and the code DRY.
Leveraging Cloudflare Pages to host assets as close to the end-user as possible, reducing Time to First Byte (TTFB).
“Delivered a fully responsive, production-ready website that serves as the primary digital touchpoint for the firm. The site currently maintains 100% uptime and serves as a high-conversion tool for new client acquisitions.”
