Website can't be found on Google

Hi,

I recently created a website for the company I'm working for and I can't find the site when I search it with key words in the google search bar. What is even weirder is that I can find the website only when typing the complete URL "ash-architectes.com " in the browser search bar. 
Key words like "ash" or "ash architectes" and "ash architectes Strasbourg" (we are the only company with that name in Strabsourg) don't work on the classic google search bar which means that no one finds my website the "usual" way. 
I've tried to follow the steps shown on both the squarespace SEO help page and the google search console site but nothing seems to work. 
I made my own website a few years ago and I did not have these issues. 

Thank you for your help !

Simon

Is the website/domain name very new? (less than 3-6 months old?) Google will often not show new website on new domains for a period of a few months

Is this website anything to do with the same company?
https://atelier-ashe.fr/

What have you done on GSC? Is it listing any of the pages as indexed?

The site has not been indexed (site:ash-architectes.com), and as a result it won't appear in search results. See Google's documentation: https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/7474347

The domain is like a year or so old, but the website itself has been created less than a month ago.. 
The ashe website has nothing to do with our company... 
GSC doesn't show my page as indexed (see screenshot below). If I translate what's written there it says : "processing data. Please check again tomorrow"..but google shows me this message for a couple weeks now. image.thumb.png.b1d20d09123966fb244e9fd9e3085bf9.png

Yes it seems that google still hasn't indexed the website. I even sent them a sitemap which doesn't seem to work either. Maybe I'll juste have to wait a little longer.

Thank for your reply, it seems that google has not indexed the website yet... I guess I'll have to wait longer.


Thank you all for your replies !

The first words on the Home page are: "NOTRE SITE EST ACTUELLEMENT EN CONSTRUCTION. CERTAINES PAGES RISQUENT DE NE PAS S’AFFICHER CORRECTEMENT." 

Translates to: "OUR SITE IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION. SOME PAGES MAY NOT BE DISPLAYED CORRECTLY." 

You just need to finish the site, remove this statement, then ask for a crawl.
