Kitchen Architecture

Kitchen Architecture sells high-end kitchens from design centres across London, Oxford and Cheshire. They wanted a site that felt closer to a printed monograph than a product website, with the photography leading every page. I built it solo in Webflow, CMS structure included, with custom GSAP animation layered throughout.

The build

The site is built in Webflow with the CMS handling kitchen ranges, other spaces, design centres, case studies and editorial stories. On top of that, a custom JavaScript layer drives the experience: GSAP and ScrollTrigger for scroll-linked animation, Lenis for smooth scrolling, and a set of bespoke transitions for the navigation, hero sequences and image galleries. Forms (contact, brochure request, design centre visits) are wired into the CMS with conditional logic and tailored confirmation states, and the whole site is tuned for performance with lazy-loaded media, responsive image sets and careful sequencing of animation work so nothing fights the scroll.
