DBA-GROUP is an architecture and design bureau founded in 2003 by architect Vladislav Andreev. The team designs projects of various types and scales: from private interiors and public spaces to restaurants, hotels, medical, and sports facilities. Over its history, the bureau has completed more than 500 projects in Russia, CIS countries, and the MENA region.
CSG's task was a comprehensive update of DBA-GROUP's visual image and the creation of a digital system matching the level and scale of the architectural bureau. It was required to develop a restrained identity, design business printed materials, and create a website that systematically presents the areas of work, portfolio, experience, and team expertise.
At the core of DBA-GROUP's positioning is professional expertise, an individual approach, and the ability to work with projects of various complexity and typology. The bureau is not limited to creating a visual concept but comprehensively supports project implementation, combining architecture, design, and functional solutions into a unified system.
The corporate identity is built on architectural precision, strict typography, and a monochrome palette. The minimalist visual system does not compete with the bureau's projects but creates a neutral environment for their presentation. The graphics, compositional grid, and use of space emphasize the rationality, scale, and premium character of the brand.
At the research stage, we studied the bureau's areas of work, portfolio structure, target audience characteristics, and visual codes of the architectural market. The analysis allowed us to form a clear content hierarchy and determine the principles of visual communication applicable both in the digital environment and in business printed materials.
We developed the structure of a multi-page website, providing separate sections for projects, directions, services, information about the bureau, publications, and contacts. Special attention was given to navigation through a large portfolio, interface adaptability, and visual presentation of architectural materials.
The frontend part of the site is built on Vue.js, which allowed us to create a fast and responsive interface with smooth interaction between sections. WordPress is used to manage projects, publications, and other content — the bureau's staff can independently update materials through the administrative panel.

The site includes feedback forms, an interactive map, multilingual support, and a management system for a large volume of projects and media materials. All elements are integrated with the administrative panel, allowing information on the site to be quickly edited and supplemented without developer involvement.
As part of the corporate identity, we also developed presentation templates for DBA-GROUP's projects and commercial proposals. A unified design system helps consistently present architectural concepts, drawings, visualizations, and key project parameters in communication with clients and partners.
