Studio Zidovi is a premier architecture and interior design practice known for modern precision. However, their legacy website was failing to capture the sophistication of their built environments. My mission was to bridge the gap between physical space and digital experience. I set out to create a custom WordPress website that serves as a high-performance digital portfolio combining minimalist UI/UX design with robust technical architecture to showcase their projects without distraction.
