A Gallery Grade Home for Los Angeles Architecture

Services

Designed Around the Work

Makim Architecture is a full service architecture practice in Los Angeles focused on luxurious residential and commercial work. We designed and built its new site on WordPress with Bricks, giving each project a gallery grade stage with photography that loads fast. Residential, commercial and in progress work each has a clear place, project pages read like exhibitions, and on page SEO puts the practice in front of the clients it builds for.

What Needed Solving

Luxury Needs the Right Frame

Makim Architecture shapes luxurious homes and landmark commercial spaces. Its website had to present that work the way a gallery would.

A portfolio that needed a gallery

From Mulholland Drive residences to the Jeffrey Deitch gallery, the work deserved a stage that treats every project like an exhibition.

Two disciplines, one clear home

Completed residences, commercial spaces and work still in progress all needed their own clear place inside a single, calm structure.

Heavy photography, light pages

Architecture photography is large by nature, and the site had to carry full frame imagery without ever feeling slow to move through.

Framed like an exhibition

What We Delivered

A Stage for Every Project

A new design, built on Bricks

The site was designed from scratch and built on WordPress with Bricks, shaped around the practice's calm, luxurious work.

Projects staged like exhibits

Each project gets a dedicated page with full frame photography, so a residence reads with the weight of a gallery show.

Residential and commercial, split

Completed residential, completed commercial and in progress work each have their own clear route from the first screen.

Photography tuned for speed

Large architectural imagery is sized, compressed and lazy loaded, so full frame photos never slow the walk through.

A calm, confident visual voice

Generous white space, restrained type and slow, subtle motion let the buildings do all of the talking on every page.

SEO for the Los Angeles market

On page SEO foundations put the practice in front of clients searching for architects in Los Angeles and beyond.

Simple for the studio to update

New projects, photography and copy can be added from the WordPress admin, keeping the portfolio current as work completes.

The Outcome

Every Project, Properly Framed

Design led from the first line

Residences shown at full scale

A structure as clear as a plan

Full frame photos, fast pages

Found in Los Angeles searches

A portfolio easy to keep current

Conclusion

A Home Worthy of Its Houses

Makim Architecture now presents its work the way it deserves to be seen. Each residence and commercial space stands on a gallery grade stage, the structure reads as clearly as a plan set, and the photography stays sharp without slowing the page. As new projects complete, the studio adds them from the admin and the portfolio keeps growing.
