CityRoamer

A Riga IT consultancy, rebuilt twice: in July off a website builder, in September around one idea — complexity becoming clarity.

  • Role design, 3D and build
  • Scope 14 pages
  • Built no framework, no builder
  • September release live 30 Sep 2026
  • cityroamer.lv →

The block is rebuilt from the September site's own 3D model. The three acts below borrow the site's three process drawings: draft, built, refined.

The CityRoamer block drawn as linework on navy: two plinths of buildings joined by a dashed amber route

Act I · Drafted · before July

A website builder, and a certificate that warned visitors away

A site on a website-builder platform. The security certificate was issued for the builder's domain, not cityroamer.lv, so browsers warned visitors away, and the domain redirected to a builder page.

Act II · Built · July 2026

Thirteen pages, the real logo, a working form

Thirteen pages including a branded 404, on a “Trusted Classic” system, with the company's real logo, a working contact form and fonts served from the site itself.

Act III · Refined · September 2026

The Living Blueprint

  • The Living Blueprint: a 3D home scene that moves from complexity to clarity. Where 3D can't run, the same model supplies the still images.
  • Four services, four treatments: IT strategy consulting, technology project, software consulting and digital transformation each get their own visual and a rendered motion loop.
  • Process in three drawings: draft, built, refined.
  • Fourteen pages, including a message-sent confirmation page; the legal pages' draft notes removed as the client asked.
  • A simple enquiry: name, company, email, message, with an automatic reply.
  • A 24-page brand book: lockups, clear space, don'ts, colour, type and motion (credited, not shown).
The same block in the client's lit look, the amber route glowing between the plinths

Act III · Refined · four services

Four services, four treatments

On cityroamer.lv each service has its own visual and a rendered motion loop. These four material studies echo them in the site's own palette and light. They were made for this page.

  1. Material study: an amber light travels a route through three milestones beside three ivory blocks
    01 IT Strategy Consulting
  2. Material study: nine ivory modules on a navy plinth lift and settle in a diagonal sweep
    02 Technology Project
  3. Material study: a stack of four ivory slabs opens and closes beside a navy spine with amber nodes
    03 Software Consulting
  4. Material study: pulses run an amber trunk and light its branches to three ivory blocks
    04 Digital Transformation

“The new site looks and feels far more professional than the old one — clean design, nice touches throughout, and everything just works. Took care of it end to end and the quality shows. Very happy with it.”
