Perkins & Will - what we built and why.
Perkins & Will is a renowned architecture and design firm with a strong focus on sustainability, innovation, and collaboration. Their projects span across different sectors and regions, making them a significant player in the global architecture industry.
What we had to solve.
A global brand surface for one of the most respected names in architecture — hundreds of projects, dozens of studios, a sustainability story that needed substance.
- 01
Showcase hundreds of projects across sectors (healthcare, education, civic, residential) without one sector drowning out the others.
- 02
Tell a substantive sustainability story — not greenwashed PDFs buried three clicks deep.
- 03
Support multi-studio content authorship across global offices with a conflict-free editorial flow.
- 04
Handle image-heavy project pages with sub-2s LCP and graceful fallbacks on slow networks.
- 05
Build a content model flexible enough for future formats (case studies, research, reports) without a rebuild.

{ 01 }
Project explorer
Multi-facet filtering across sector, location, certification, and team, with structured metadata so projects can be cross-referenced from any angle.
-
{ 02 }
Editorial publishing workflow
A workflow tuned for global studios — drafts, reviews, scheduled releases — so 25+ studios can publish without stepping on each other.
-
{ 03 }
Sustainability story-mode
Long-form templates that put certifications, embodied-carbon data, and post-occupancy results in front of the project narrative — not behind a download.
-
{ 04 }
Performance pass on image-heavy pages
Lazy media, responsive imagery, font subsetting, and critical CSS so the project pages stay fast despite the visual budget the work deserves.
-
{ 05 }
Future-format content model
A content model that anticipates research, reports, and editorial — so adding a new format is a configuration change, not a rebuild.
Outcomes that matter.
A world-class brand surface for one of the most respected names in architecture, designed to grow with the firm rather than constrain it.

A surface that honors the work — fast, accessible, and structured enough that the firm can publish research, reports, and case studies without ever waiting on engineering.
