SHEET 02 / METHODOLOGY

How every Solvus site gets built.

No case studies yet. Solvus is pre-launch. Instead, every decision and technique we use is documented below. If you want to see what we deliver, read this page. It is the honest version of a portfolio.

STRUCTURE
PHASE 01 / STRUCTURE

We start with the argument, not the visuals.

Every site opens with a question: what does this realtor need a visitor to do in the first 15 seconds?

Before anything else, we map visitor intent, information hierarchy, and page structure. This is wireframing, but done as a written argument first.

PHASE 02 / SYSTEM

Design tokens before components. Components before pages.

Every Solvus build starts with a type scale, a spacing scale, and a colour palette. Locked before any visual design. Then components. Then pages. Never the other way around.

PHASE 03 / BUILD

Hand-coded.
Every time.

We do not use page builders. They are bloated, slow, unmaintainable, and locked to specific platforms.

Hand-coding gives you sub-1s load times, intentional placement of every DOM element, and zero hidden tracking scripts.

PHASE 04 / LAUNCH

Launch is a handover, not a delivery.

On launch day, you get source code, hosting credentials, domain ownership, documentation, and a 30-minute training call. No ongoing dependency. You can end the engagement at any time and your site keeps running.
