Studio Irvine presents its work with the quiet confidence of a gallery, and this homepage is all about a single, beautifully lit image. A crisp white frame surrounds a photograph of colourful ceramic and glass objects — Ettore Sottsass's "The Indian Memory 2017" — staged on white plinths against a deep red wall, punctuated by a single yellow dot. Restrained navigation ("About, Index") and a simple caption sit at the margins, leaving the composition almost entirely to the artwork and its generous negative space. Slim up-and-down arrows hint at a calm, one-image-at-a-time browsing rhythm. It is understated, editorial web design that trusts strong art direction and a single striking picture to hold the page.
