TecnoChianti website: home page with an aerial photo of a project in Chianti

The project

Three professionals, two architects and an industrial engineer, who design private buildings and restore existing heritage in protected landscapes.

They needed a website that presented their work with a formal, confident tone.

The direction

Typographic architecture: a paper-coloured background, type in the lead role and a single colour, terracotta, used like a stamp.

The hills become a drawing

On the Studio page, as you scroll, the landscape video fades to black and white, then to paper, and the ridgelines are drawn like the lines of an architectural plan.

The studio's work

Black and white photos that come into colour on hover. Each project has a concise sheet: location, year, status, type, category, then a description and gallery.

On every screen

Designed for phones too: the same care, the same transitions, the same details.
