Website Design
We like to think outside the box when it comes to web design. Instead of the tired stock images of handshakes, glass buildings and call centres, we inject something a little different and unique into our websites. This might be video, animation, illustration or bespoke functionality. This helps establish your brand as unique in your space.
Having been immersed in the world of e-commerce for the last twenty years, we are experts in what makes a good user experience (UX) not just for your site visitors but for your website admins too. We consider the goals of your website visitors, whatever their entry point and make sure they reach the information they need in as few clicks as possible.

All our websites are bespoke (for reasons I explain here) and we mainly use WordPress for ease of editing for our clients. Where required we can customise the WordPress CMS to make updates easier and design and build custom plugins to help you automate admin tasks. WordPress allows you to have control over your website content – making general edits as and when you need. We recommend it because it is open source, license-free, well supported and easy to use. This means a speedy build, added widgets, tried and tested core code, and a stable platform with high levels of accessibility.
We also offer website build and project management services for other creative agencies and can work with your designers to consult on what’s possible. We build your website and host in a password-protected staging area for you to test and provide feedback. This service has been especially popular with print-based agencies who want to expand into digital. We are highly professional when it comes to client meetings so can attend video calls as an extension of your in-house team. We can also partner with digital marketing agencies to design assets for social media, create static or animated html5 banners for Google ads or build responsive html emails.
Our services
Video & Animation
Animation and video are a perfect way to distil your entire offering into a short, entertaining video that keeps the attention of your audience. Video can be fully animated, created from stock or filmed on-site on the ground or in the air. We can even edit video for social media from iphone/Zoom footage provided by you, adding titles, transitions and animations to make it pop.
Branding
The rebrand of a business or first time brand will include colour schemes, fonts, visual language including photography and illustration styles and tone of voice. We will create a brand book for your business setting out the rules of your brand – so that the look and tone are consistent across all platforms and published material. Designing your brand is an exciting process and we will facilitate your involvement and ideas throughout.
Photography
Commissioning bespoke photography for your product or service means you don’t need to rely on a limited pool of stock photography to articulate your message. We can provide on-location or studio-based art direction and photography, organise your shoot including location booking and provide aerial photos/drone video footage.
Illustration
The use of illustration across your website, video or documents makes you instantly recognisable by the style of imagery which is completely your own. We can create a completely unique visual language to match your tone of voice.
