/ Our Approach

Growing Architects brands with Social Media Marketing since 2017.

Instagram has become the primary place architecture is looked at, and most practices treat it as a dumping ground for finished photography. A completed project appears as six carousel images with a caption naming the client and the photographer, and then nothing for five weeks. The practices that build genuine reach do something different: they show the drawing before the building, the site before the render, the joint before the elevation, and they release a project as a sequence rather than a single post. Audiences here are mixed, part prospective client, part peer and press, part student, and a practice needs the peer and press half as much as the client half, because that is where awards, publication and referral come from.

Social media for architecture serves three audiences at once and the practices that do well are deliberate about which one each post is for. Prospective clients are the smallest group and the slowest to act, and they mostly use the feed as verification after hearing your name elsewhere, which means consistency and evident competence matter more than reach. Peers, consultants and press are the most active group and the most useful indirectly, since publication, awards, speaking invitations and referral all flow from professional visibility, and they engage with drawings, details and process far more than finished photography. Students and enthusiasts generate the bulk of raw engagement and almost no commercial value, which is why follower count is a poor measure of whether the channel is working. Format behaviour is consistent across the category: carousels remain strongest for project storytelling, video performs when it moves through space or shows making rather than imitating general trends, and text-led posts about design reasoning perform better than most practices expect. The failure pattern is almost always the same, which is long silences broken by an occasional finished-project dump, since the algorithm and the audience both reward continuity. We have worked with 150+ brands since 2017 across visually led and design-driven categories, and can share specific names and numbers on request.

Projects Released As Sequences, Not Single Posts

A completed project is a fortnight of material, not one carousel. Site context and the constraint, the concept sketch, the plan, a material decision, a detail that took three attempts, then the finished spaces, then the client brief in retrospect. Sequencing it holds attention across weeks and lets the algorithm find different segments of the audience with different parts of the story.

Process And Drawing Content As The Differentiator

Finished photography is the most abundant and least distinguishing content in the category, because every practice has it and it flattens into the same feed. Sections, working drawings, physical models, site progress, mock-ups and material samples perform strongly and are what actually demonstrates how you think. They are also the content peers and press engage with.

Written For Peers And Press As Much As For Clients

Awards juries, editors, collaborators and referring consultants all watch this channel, and their attention converts into publication, invitations and recommendations rather than into direct enquiries. We write captions that credit the team properly, explain the design reasoning, and name the materials and collaborators, because that is the content this half of the audience shares.

Reels Built From Space And Craft, Not Trends

Architecture video works when it moves through a space, reveals a detail, or shows a hand making something. It fails when it borrows a trending audio and a dance format that reads as embarrassing from a practice selling considered judgement. We build video around walkthroughs, material process, drawing to built comparisons and the reveal, keeping the tone consistent with the work.

Awards, Publication And Exhibition Amplified Properly

Recognition is the strongest credibility signal in this category and most practices post it once and move on. We plan a proper release around a win, a feature or an exhibition, connect it back to the project content, and make sure the credit is legible to people encountering the practice for the first time through that post.

Photography And Rights Handled Before Publishing

Architectural photography carries usage terms and collaborators expect credit, and getting either wrong damages relationships that matter more than a post does. We work within your photographer agreements, maintain a credit convention across the feed, and confirm client permission on projects where confidentiality or occupancy makes publication sensitive.

How We Work

Our Proven Process

Audit The Archive

We go through completed and current projects for material that has never been published: sketches, sections, models, site photography, mock-ups and detail shots. Most practices are sitting on years of content and have only ever posted the final photographs.

Set The Visual Grammar

Grid logic, typography for drawing overlays, crop conventions, caption structure and credit format agreed once, so the feed reads as one practice rather than as a series of unrelated project announcements.

Build The Project Release Format

A repeatable sequence for launching a completed project across a fortnight, moving from context and constraint through drawing and material decisions to the finished spaces, so every project launch has a structure rather than being improvised.

Capture Discipline On Site

A simple protocol for site and studio documentation, covering what to photograph at which stage and how, so the material exists when the project completes instead of having to be reconstructed from whatever was on a phone.

Plan Around Awards And Publication

Content calendar aligned to award submission and announcement cycles, exhibition dates and press features, with a planned release for each rather than a single celebratory post after the fact.

Review Saves, Shares And Who Is Watching

Monthly reporting weighted to saves, shares, profile visits and the professional composition of the audience, with follower count reported as context rather than as the objective.

Common Questions

Everything you need to know about Social Media Marketing for Architects brands

What should an architecture practice post besides finished projects?

Drawings, models, site progress and material decisions, which together should outweigh finished photography in the feed. Sections, working details, physical models, mock-ups, samples and construction stage photography consistently outperform completed shots because they show how the practice thinks rather than only what it produced, and they are what peers and press engage with. Finished photography is necessary but it is also the most commoditised content in the category. A feed made only of completed projects is indistinguishable from every other practice and goes quiet between completions.

Does Instagram actually bring in commissions?

Rarely as a direct first touch, and frequently as the reason a prospect chooses you over a shortlisted competitor. Clients typically hear your name through a referral, a publication or a search, then examine the feed to judge whether the work and the sensibility fit, and that examination decides more appointments than the channel is credited for. The indirect value is larger still, since press features, award visibility and collaborator referrals often originate in professional attention built here. Judging the channel on direct enquiries alone will lead you to undervalue it.

How often should we post?

Two to three times a week is a realistic sustainable rhythm for most practices, and consistency matters far more than frequency. The common pattern of six posts during a project launch followed by two months of silence performs badly, because both the audience and the distribution reward continuity. A practice with a working capture protocol on site has more than enough material to sustain two posts a week from ongoing work alone. We would rather plan a pace you can hold through a busy period than an ambitious schedule that collapses.

Should we post projects that are still under construction?

Yes, with client permission, and it is some of the strongest material available to you. Construction stage content shows problem solving in progress, gives you publishable material during the long gaps between completions, and builds anticipation for the reveal. The conditions are that the client agrees, that anything commercially sensitive about the site or the brief is kept out, and that site safety and worker dignity are respected in what you photograph. For private residential work particularly, we confirm permission explicitly rather than assuming the standard contract covers it.

Should we use trending audio and formats on Reels?

No for trend formats, yes for video generally, and this is a distinction worth holding. Video that moves through a space, reveals a detail, compares a drawing to the built result or shows a craftsperson working performs strongly and reads as consistent with a practice selling considered judgement. Trending audio with a dance or point-to-text format may gain reach, but from an architecture practice it reads as a category error to exactly the clients and peers you want, and reach without credibility does nothing for a business whose product is trust in judgement.

Have you handled social media for architecture practices?

We have worked with multiple brands in design-led and visually driven categories since 2017 and can share specific names and numbers on request. Our portfolio covers 150+ brands since 2017, and our creative direction is founder-led rather than delegated to junior staff. The most relevant published work is in categories where the visual output is the product and the audience includes press and peers as well as buyers, which is structurally the same problem an architecture practice has. We are happy to walk through those accounts on a call.

Who should appear in the content, the principal or the work?

Mostly the work, with the principal present enough to be a recognisable person. Architecture clients are appointing an individual and a sensibility, so seeing the principal explain a decision, walk a site or discuss a material adds something that a photograph cannot, and it supports the authority signals that matter elsewhere in your marketing. The failure mode is a feed that becomes a personal brand channel with buildings as backdrop, which alienates the professional audience. A useful ratio is the work leading, with the principal appearing in explanatory and process content.

What metrics tell us this is working?

Saves and shares first, then profile visits and the professional composition of your audience. A save means someone is filing your project as a reference and a share means they are showing a colleague or a spouse, both of which correlate with commercial and professional interest far better than likes do. Profile visits indicate people moving from a post to evaluating the practice. Follower count is the weakest signal in this category because students and enthusiasts inflate it without adding value. We report saves, shares, audience composition and enquiries that mention the channel.
