Architecture firm website cost in Andorra la Vella: local agencies vs Kolonell (2026)

The verdict in three sentences

In Andorra la Vella, an architecture firm website built by an Andorran agency costs, as a 2026 ballpark, between 3 500 and 15 000 EUR, and more if the site must launch in Catalan, Spanish, French and English at once. Kolonell builds the portfolio, the services pages and the team page for a fixed price of 2 700, 4 500 or 8 200 EUR, delivered in 3 to 4 weeks on Starter and Growth. The useful comparison is the 3-year total cost and above all languages: a local agency may include Catalan, while at Kolonell it is supplied by you or quoted separately.

This version is written for the English-speaking partners of architecture practices in Andorra la Vella, many of whom work with new residents and international second-home buyers.

What do Andorran agencies, freelancers and Kolonell charge?

These ranges are prudent ballparks, not official figures. They draw on public rate cards of agencies in the Principality and neighbouring regions (Catalonia, Occitanie), minimum project sizes shown on Clutch.co profiles, hourly rates commonly published by those agencies (often 50 to 90 EUR per hour) and rates visible on Malt and Upwork. The Andorran market is small: many practices also consult agencies in Barcelona or Toulouse, which widens the spread.

An honest point: an Andorran freelancer who knows your sites can deliver a simple website for around 2 000 EUR, below Starter. Kolonell adds a written scope at a fixed price, native copy for every project sheet, a project manager and 3 months of support. The domain stays in your name and all access is handed over.

Payment is by bank transfer or Wise: 50 % to start, 50 % at delivery. Your project manager holds Google Meet calls at a time that suits you and sends a written update every week. The team is based in Senegal (GMT), one hour behind Andorra in winter and two in summer. Details are on our international website offer.

Which 3-year total cost should you compare?

The build is only one line. A practice also pays for hosting, maintenance, new projects to publish and language versions. The table uses the same maintenance assumption on both sides, since Kolonell maintenance after the support period is quoted on request.

The gap is real but smaller than elsewhere in Europe, because Andorran rates remain moderate. Ask every supplier to fill in these same lines before deciding.

What does each Kolonell tier include for an architecture practice?

An extranet to share drawings with clients or a custom project database is an application quoted on request, as is ongoing search work.

What does an Andorra la Vella architecture firm website need?

The Principality builds in difficult terrain: chalets and houses on slopes, renovation of stone bordes, residential buildings in Andorra la Vella and Escaldes-Engordany, hotels tied to the ski areas. Part of the clientele arrives with a residency plan, from France, Spain or further away, and discovers the practice online before visiting. The site has to answer their questions:

• Located projects (parish, altitude, type of plot) with a clear status: completed, under construction, in design.
• The permit process explained simply: each parish's planning rules, the steps, usual timelines, with no promise of an administrative outcome.
• Your clients' languages: Catalan for the administration and local clients, French and Spanish for neighbours, English for international residents.
• Photos that show the materials: stone, wood, winter and summer light, taken by a local photographer.
• A short form: parish, plot size, new build or renovation, timing.

On compliance, the facts only. The architecture profession in Andorra is organised around the Col·legi Oficial d'Arquitectes d'Andorra: present each person's title and registration exactly, and do not give the architect title to a team member who does not hold it. Photos of your buildings belong to their photographer unless the licence says otherwise, so check web rights. Andorra has its own Qualified Law 29/2021 on personal data protection, close to the GDPR, and the GDPR may also apply if you target clients living in the European Union. For accessibility, WCAG 2.1 AA remains the sensible technical reference. This is not legal advice.

Which red flags matter in a quote?

• A price with no page or language list: a four-language site does not cost the same as a French one.
• Unreviewed machine translation for Catalan or Spanish.
• A .ad or .com domain registered in the supplier's name: it must be in yours.
• No copywriting planned: your project sheets will stay empty.
• 3D renders presented as completed work with no label.
• Mandatory long-term maintenance with no way to take back control.

Mini case study

Illustrative example. Marc T., partner in a three-person studio in Escaldes-Engordany specialising in borda renovations and chalets for new residents, compares two offers. An Andorran agency quotes 12 500 EUR for a site in Catalan, French and Spanish, delivered in 11 weeks. Kolonell proposes Premium at 8 200 EUR, bilingual French and English, in 5 weeks according to the written schedule, with Catalan and Spanish handled by a translator for 900 EUR each. Photography costs 1 100 EUR either way.

Totals before maintenance: 13 600 EUR with the agency, 11 100 EUR with Kolonell, a 2 500 EUR gap. Marc picks Kolonell because English matters for his international clients and Premium support lasts 6 months. For a practice working mostly with local clients in Catalan, the Andorran agency would have been an equally rational choice.
