Drupal 11 New Build

International Orientation

Visual Design Focus

HENN combines architecture, engineering, and strategic thinking in an interdisciplinary team with decades of experience. The website must reflect this standard: present architecture projects at the highest visual level, work internationally, and meet current technical standards.

The requirements: large volumes of high-quality images, interactive features for project presentation, a design that meets the visual standards of an architecture firm, and a platform the team can manage independently.

The platform uses Drupal 11 with Layout Builder for flexible page compositions, Paragraphs for structured content, Slick galleries for project presentation, and Geocoder/Geofield for displaying international locations and projects.

arocom built henn.com as a new build on Drupal 11 — the latest version of the CMS. The platform combines visually striking design with technical excellence.

Drupal 11 New Build

Not an upgrade of a legacy system, but a clean new build on the current Drupal version. Modern architecture from the start.

Visual Presentation

Optimized image processing for large architectural photographs. Responsive image delivery for fast load times at maximum visual quality.

JavaScript Features

Numerous interactive features with JavaScript for project presentation: galleries, animations, and filter functions that enrich the user experience.

International Orientation

Multilingual support and international audiences considered from the start. The platform works for a global architecture firm.

henn.com presents architecture projects at the visual level expected by an international architecture firm. Drupal 11 (Core 11.3) as the foundation provides long-term maintainability and a clear upgrade path. Layout Builder enables the team to create flexible page compositions without developer intervention. Redis caching and image optimization via ImageMagick ensure stable performance even on image-heavy pages.

The next project is already in planning. I can recommend arocom to anyone with a clear conscience and without reservation.

Why was henn.com rebuilt on Drupal 11?

A new build on Drupal 11 offers the latest architecture, best performance, and long-term maintainability. For an international architecture firm with high visual standards, this was the right decision.

How does Drupal 11 handle large volumes of images?

Drupal 11 offers native support for responsive image delivery, modern image formats like WebP and AVIF, and powerful media management. Combined with caching strategies, load times remain stable even on image-heavy pages.

Can arocom also deliver design-driven projects?

Yes. arocom has regularly collaborated with design agencies since 2012. Technical implementation of sophisticated designs — including animations and interactive features — is part of the core business.

Is Drupal 11 suitable for international websites?

Drupal offers native multilingual support and is designed for international projects. Content, URLs, and interface elements can be individually managed per language.

How does the collaboration between design agency and arocom work?

arocom takes over the technical implementation of the design and provides early advice on technical feasibility. Through clear processes and direct communication, the collaboration works seamlessly.
