Since 1930, Swiss architects have
relied on “Baudokumentation” as
a central source of information for
building projects and construction
materials. As part of a
comprehensive relaunch, the platform
was completely reimagined –
technically, visually, and in terms
of content – with the goal of sustainably
improving the user experience.
The redesign was based on
previously identified weaknesses in
the existing system landscape. The
focus was on optimizing the customer
journey, unifying platform and domain
structures, and significantly reducing
coordination and development efforts.
The new website consistently places
the user at the center. Expanded content,
intelligent filtering functions, and clear
navigation improve orientation and make
it easier to find relevant information. A
sticky navigation bar provides quick
access to project descriptions, plans,
downloads, and participants – without
endless scrolling.
The platform now features significantly
richer content per project: detailed
descriptions, architectural plans, building
products, involved parties, and
a curated image gallery in a clean
masonry layout. This ensures that each
project is presented in a precise, clear,
and visually compelling way.
The result is a powerful platform that
combines information, usability,
and aesthetics at a high level – offering
architects and those interested in
construction a contemporary and inspiring
user experience.

The visual concept is inspired
by modern architectural communication: large
typography, generous white
space, and a minimalist layout
draw attention to the content.
Deliberately avoiding cluttered
design in favor of clarity,
orientation, and elegance.

A university website that truly
speaks to its audience
For Hochschule Worms, we developed a website that is consistently tailored to the needs of its primary target audience – young adults between the ages of 18 and 25. The previous website appeared dark and visually cluttered due to its color scheme. Our goal was to create a minimalist and modern design that provides clarity, supports orientation, and emphasizes what truly matters.
A central element of the relaunch was the use of authentic images and videos. They are intended to showcase the campus, research, and student life—not in a staged way, but calmly, naturally, and subtly. The aim is for the faculty to appear approachable through these visuals, avoiding a traditional sense of hierarchy.
The new design emphasizes generous white space, black typography, and a clear structure. The typeface used is Helvetica Neue – clean, timeless, and highly legible. Playful colors have been deliberately avoided; instead, visual interest is created by selectively highlighting key terms with accent colors specific to each subject area.
The logo was also reimagined. To align with the new, restrained look, it appears either in black or – depending on the background – in white. This allows it to blend harmoniously into the minimal overall design, moving away from the university's previous, more traditional color scheme.
From a technical and structural standpoint, the relaunch was implemented in an agile manner – content by content, module by module. Content areas were reorganized more clearly, and user navigation was significantly improved. The result is a website that not only convinces visually but also meets the high functional standards of modern university communication.
