Powerful new Landing page for Architectural Company

Architectural

We are a drafting, design, and permitting company specializing in preparing residential blueprints.

I am looking for a more professional site, business-to-business. We primarily work with general contractors and builders, they send us their projects with what their clients want, we produce the plans, engineering, and get the permits. We are not a design firm, the "design" we do relates to Building Code and Bylaw - adjusting and tweaking your project to ensure a smoother permitting and building process" . More of a "brand identity" issue vs. website design, but the site needs to help explain this to our clients. Send us what you want and we will make it happen. ***Update*** Initially I had posted a white/grey/black tone or color scheme. This is now removed and I want designers to explore different color options. Light blue is still a favorite color of mine. I like simple and clean, with light blue as accent colors. My existing site has a general layout that I like, the landing page (https://www.sevendaypermits.ca/home) needs something new. I do not like a lot of stock images or "construction/design" themes - I want the layout of the information and existing icons to be interesting on their own and not need to rely on stock images if possible. That said I am open to a couple, I just have not seen any that I love so feel free to play around with some stock images. As described below there will be a map that will be a focus showing our completed jobs.

The overall layout and additional pages I like so I just need the landing page (https://www.sevendaypermits.ca/home) designed. My developers will work with the feel and style of the landing page and update the other pages accordingly. We need to get across that we work with builders to get their permits. I do not focus on "design" in the traditional sense, we do not work with home owners to create something they love. Our clients know what they want and need a permit. I have a developer that will build the site, I need the visuals for them, the layout and feel is what this contest is for. Instead of the current 3 circles (trust/experience/efficient), I still want that text/description - but a map to visualize the volume of work. Curently 1000+ jobs completed so a Google-type map that will have little dots for all the jobs we have completed (image attached below). So when someone visits the site there is an immediate visual of how many projects we have done. "Trusted By" - I need this re-worked - need ideas on how to layout multiple builder logos. Open to any and all ideas for how to re-work that section. In addition to this I need a call to action "Interested in joining our network/working with Seven Day Permits?" Something that allows new companies to connect with me and let me know about their business. REVIEWS: I need this section added, showing some of our Google reviews and option to "see all" and be taken to our Google Reviews. Not sure how to lay this out, but I need the reviews highlighted on the main page. "About Us" - I need this tweaked and updated as well. Information about our services is on our site, I want a cleaner way to show this information. "Why Choose...." - I am fine with how this is laid out, I like my icons, I think it works but open to ideas on different ways to have those 6 options shown - open to different icons or styles as well. "Our Process" - same comment as above, it works, but open to different ideas on how to show this section - open to different icons or styles as well. "Social" - nothing needed there, you can show it in the designs as-is - it will simply be a link to Instagram anyways. "Footer" - my developers have a footer I like in the new website they are working on for me, so no need to work on that and it can be ignored on your designs.

images or text relaing to heavily on "design" - we are not a design firm, the "design" we do relates to Building Code and Bylaw - adjusting and tweaking your project to ensure a smoother permitting and building process"

I have used 99designs many times, with different companies. Be creative, I am looking for something new and exciting - not simply my existing website with a couple of tweaks. I will provide lots of comments throughout the process and work with all of you to identify the things I love and what we can remove.

Every design category has flexible pricing for all budgets. Web page design starts at $819.
