RZest Engineers: A Modern Digital Presence for a Structural Engineering Firm
RZest Engineers, a structural engineering firm based in New Delhi, needed a professional web presence that could showcase their project portfolio and technical credibility to prospective clients. The brief called for a fast, content-manageable site that would let the team update their work independently — without needing a developer for every change.
The Build
The site was built on Astro (v6.2.1), chosen for its static-first performance and clean output — ideal for a firm whose visitors are often evaluating technical competence at a glance. DatoCMS was integrated as the content layer, giving RZest's team a structured, editorial-friendly way to manage projects, case studies, and site copy without touching code.
Key Features
Filterable project portfolio — visitors can browse RZest's engineering work by category, making it easy to find relevant, comparable projects
Case study pages — dedicated templates for in-depth project write-ups, giving each engagement room to demonstrate technical depth and outcomes
Full SEO/OG implementation — structured metadata and Open Graph tags to ensure the site performs well in search and shares cleanly across platforms
The design was scoped and delivered via HTML templated design before development began, ensuring the visual direction was locked in and approved ahead of the build.
Delivery
The entire project — design, DatoCMS content modelling, and development — was delivered in under three weeks, demonstrating the kind of fast turnaround that's possible when a lean, focused stack (Astro + DatoCMS) replaces the overhead of more complex CMS or framework choices.
