Vaune.
A website for a practice that restores period houses — it has to feel as considered as the work, and turn that impression into well-qualified project inquiries.
An original studio project — designed and built by Devroniq Studio to show what we can make. Not client work.


The problem
High-end renovation is bought on trust, usually after an evening of browsing on a phone.
Most practice websites look like templates, or hide the only thing a prospect needs — how to start — behind a generic contact form. Vaune is designed like a printed monograph and makes the first step structured and reassuring.
What it does
- An editorial home pageA large serif headline, a photograph that settles into place, and one clear call to action.
- A real project archiveAn index with hover previews, an image grid, and a story page for each project: brief, approach, result and facts.
- Services that answer questionsFour services with scope, typical duration and an FAQ — each linking straight to a pre-filled inquiry.
- A full-screen menuLarge serif navigation with a changing photograph; on phones it becomes the primary way around.
- A qualifying inquiryFive short steps, validation, an editable review and an indicative planning range. Nothing is sent in this demonstration.
- Restrained motionPhotographs reveal as you scroll and text eases in — switched off entirely for reduced-motion users.
Design decisions
Instrument Serif carries the voice; a wide, letter-spaced Archivo handles labels, like lettering on an architectural drawing. The palette is paper, ink and moss, so the photography does the talking.
Layouts are deliberately asymmetric — large and small images in conversation, generous margins with purpose — and each page has its own composition rather than a reused template.
