Web Design
for Architects
Custom WordPress portfolios, image pipelines that keep renders sharp without killing load times, and the local SEO that puts the firm in front of homeowners searching your cities.

I built the site for humnlab+ architecture — a mid-sized firm that outranks Houzz for its own market.
see the projectwhat an architect's site has to do
carry heavy imagery
Full-bleed photography, renders, and plan drawings — served as WebP/AVIF at up to 93% smaller files, so the portfolio feels instant on a phone at a job site.
make projects findable
Each project gets its own indexed page with location, type, and dates — how architects pick up searches for their own buildings and neighborhoods.
win the firm's cities
Most firms rank only in the map pack. The organic layer — city pages, project pages, the right internal links — is where the next client finds you.
stay maintainable
Your team adds a project with photos and fields — no developer needed, no layout breakage.
Architecture firms are the hardest clients a web designer can have — and they're most of my client list. Your work is visual, your buyers are detail-obsessed, and a template portfolio makes a $4M custom home look like stock photography.
I've built for humnlab+, K-Architects, and other South Bay design practices. I work with the AIA Long Beach / South Bay chapter. I wrote up the fundamentals and a marketing guide for residential architects.
what's included
Designed around your work — not a template. Your design system, your layout, nothing you don't use.
Not a plugin hack — a custom post type with fields for location, type, status, and galleries. If you're keeping your current site, start with the best portfolio plugins for architects.
Every image ships at the smallest size that preserves the render quality your firm expects.
City pages, project-level SEO, and monthly reporting so you can see what's ranking and what's next.

AIA Long Beach / South Bay
A chapter website rebuilt as a membership platform
A ten-year-old site with about 35 plugins became a platform where members keep their own profiles and staff run the annual programs without a developer.
Cold Chain Manufacturer
From industry worst to top 1% performance
Cold chain manufacturers don’t lose deals because of weak demand—they lose them because speed and follow-through break down after the form fill.

your project can shine here
Imagine it, someone goes to your new website:
It's an instant sale/conversion! Your new customer smiles and a single tear rolls down their cheek. They're overwhelmed by the beauty and clarity of your website. Sure it sounds like I'm joking, but am I? Let's talk.
Here's what my clients are saying
I don't like to brag, so I'll let my clients do it for me.

ok…i’ll have to say that working with CF was more than just an experience… it was FUN!!! Christian, is a person who understands the minute details and doesn’t miss a thing. You can ask him to do anything, on your website… and he’ll get it done… if he doesn’t know off hand, (which I found to be rare)… he’s honest, and will tell you he’ll figure it out, and then gets in the weeds, and exceeds all expectations.

Christian has great Ideas and is very talented. He completely rebuilt my website and also help me with my social media pages. I strongly recommend his company Click Foundry if you are looking for someone who is honest, fair and competent.

Christian is a joy to work with. He knew what he was doing and he did it quickly. I tried building out a site on wordpress and it took me forever. I almost gave up. I called him and he fixed the issues I had in a couple of days and added custom styled forms and tracking onto my site. He just knew that's what I needed, so he did it.

Toyed around with making my own site on squarespace, but very happy I went with Click Foundry. Christian helped me take elements from other websites that I really liked and turned them into something awesome and unique to me. [...] My friends that have squarespace sites are taken aback by the quality and features that I have on mine.
