To let, with a view.
A bespoke website for an independent lettings agency, choreographed from the first frame. We can’t name them, but we can show you how it lands – and what the first scroll does.

As built – identifying details changedThe brief
An independent lettings agency needed a website that feels as local as its office – friendly, confident, and quick to get tenants and landlords to the right door.
What we built
A design and build from a blank page, in one typeface and one colour, choreographed from the first frame. On arrival the headline rises into place, a pink line draws itself across the page and the photo opens in a rounded card along it. The introduction and two buttons follow, and then everything holds still. Scroll, and the card opens out to the full width of the screen, a short statement rises over the view, and the page lifts away to the services, which fill pink as the cursor crosses them. Below sit an area guide that says what each place is like to live in, and an enquiry form.
The first scroll should feel like opening the front door.
How it works
The motion tells the story, then gets out of the way. The landing is one sequence, each piece timed to hand the eye to the next – headline, line, photo, buttons – and the first scroll is the reveal. With reduced motion switched on, you get the same page, complete and still. The enquiry form checks itself as you go and picks up the area or service you were looking at. Skip link, labelled navigation, visible focus and generous type throughout.
The outcome
A local agency with a site that feels local, and an entrance worth scrolling for. The recordings above are the real site, with the name, contact details and places changed and the photo swapped for a stand-in. The agency’s name stays with the agency.
