A few possibilities

Different spaces.
One considered approach.

Explore three original project concepts. Select a category, then open a project to see its brief and design decisions.

From first thought to clear direction

A process with room
for your life.

01 / DISCOVER

Listen first.

What works in your space? What gets in the way? The brief begins with daily routines and the things you want to keep.

02 / EXPLORE

Make it tangible.

Layouts, materials and daylight studies turn a broad idea into options you can compare and discuss.

03 / REFINE

Resolve the details.

The chosen direction becomes a coordinated set of decisions, with the next steps and assumptions made clear.

Before we begin

A little more clarity.

Is this a real architecture studio?

No. Northline is an original portfolio demonstration by David Murphy. The project concepts, illustrations and estimates were created for this demo. They do not represent completed client commissions.

What parts of this website work?

The category filters, project detail dialogs, live calculator, brief generator, navigation and responsive layouts work in the browser. This demo does not collect leads, take payments or connect to a production CRM.

Could a business use a version of this?

Yes. A commissioned version would use the client's approved branding, actual project photography, verified copy and real business requirements. Forms, hosting, integrations and ongoing costs would be agreed separately.
