Websites that work as hard as you do.

Your website is often the first conversation a customer has with your business. We design and build sites that make it a good one: clear, credible, fast on a phone and easy to act on.

Pick the kind of website you need.

Not sure which one you are? Most businesses aren’t, and that’s fine. Choose the closest and we’ll work out the rest together.

Business websites

For when people need to understand what you do, trust you, and get in touch. The bread and butter of what we do, done properly.

Good for
Service businesses, clinics, consultancies, contractors, agencies, anyone whose customers check them out online first.
Usually includes
Home, services, about and contact pages, enquiry forms, WhatsApp or call buttons, search basics and a way to update content.

Corporate websites

More pages, more audiences, more people who need to update it. Structure matters as much as looks here.

Good for
Firms with several divisions, locations or audiences, from clients and partners to job applicants and media.
Usually includes
Clear information architecture, team and news sections, downloadable documents, and content editing your team can handle.

E-commerce

A store designed around your products and how your customers actually buy, not a generic theme with your logo on it.

Good for
Retailers, makers, food and drink brands, and anyone currently taking orders through DMs and spreadsheets.
Usually includes
Catalogue and variants, cart and checkout, payment provider setup (M-Pesa, cards), order emails and an admin area.

Portfolio & brand sites

When the website is part of the work. The design has to carry the brand, and the projects have to be the hero.

Good for
Architects, photographers, designers, studios, consultants and personal brands.
Usually includes
Flexible project pages, image-led layouts, a distinctive type system and a simple way to add new work.

Landing pages

One page, one job. Focused on a single offer, event or launch, with nothing in the way of the action you want people to take.

Good for
Product launches, promotions, events, ad campaigns and lead generation.
Usually includes
A single persuasive page, sign-up or enquiry form, analytics hooks and fast load times for paid traffic.

Redesigns

Your business has moved on and the website hasn’t. We keep what’s working, fix what isn’t, and bring the rest up to date.

Good for
Sites that look dated, break on phones, are hard to update, or simply never bring in enquiries.
Usually includes
A review of the current site, new structure and design, content migration and redirects so existing links keep working.

Custom website development

For websites that need to do something specific: bookings, memberships, member areas, or talking to tools you already use.

Good for
Gyms, venues, schools, restaurants and services with a workflow behind the website.
Usually includes
Custom content structures, booking or ordering flows, integrations and admin tools. If it grows bigger, see digital systems.

What a better website changes.

We won’t promise you page one of Google or a number of sales. We will build a site that gives your business its best chance.

  • You look the partA considered design that reflects the quality of what you actually deliver.
  • People trust you soonerClear information, consistent branding and the details customers look for before they call.
  • Enquiries are one tap awayShort forms, call and WhatsApp buttons, and online payment where it fits.
  • It works on a phoneDesigned for small screens and patchy connections first, then scaled up.
  • You can update itChange prices, add projects or post news without calling a developer.
  • It can grow with youA clean foundation for new pages, features and, one day, the system behind it.

Different businesses. Different websites.

A restaurant, a gym and a printer, each built around how its customers actually buy. Step through the screens.

How a website project runs.

You don’t need to be technical to work with us. Here’s what happens, and when you’re involved.

  1. 01

    Conversation

    A call or meeting about your business, your customers and what the site needs to do. Bring whatever you have.

  2. 02

    Proposal

    A written proposal: pages, features, design direction, cost and timeline. You know exactly what you’re paying for.

  3. 03

    Design

    You see the key pages designed before anything is built, and we refine them together until they’re right.

  4. 04

    Build

    We build it, add your content and test it across phones, tablets and desktops, and on slower connections.

  5. 05

    Launch & support

    We put it live on your domain, show you how to update it, and stay on hand for support if you want us.

What we’ll ask you for: your logo and brand assets, the basics about your services, and any photos you’d like to use. Don’t have all of it? Most clients don’t. We’ll work out what’s missing together.
