Pages that open at once
Websites are still the first place most people meet an organisation. We build them to load quickly, read clearly and survive the people who edit them.
The lightest sufficient form
Many sites need little more than well-made HTML and a friendly editor. Others — booking systems, member areas, internal tools — need a proper application with a database behind it. We recommend the lightest form that does the job, and we explain what it will cost to host and to change later.
Accessible by composition
Headings in order, labels on every field, link text that makes sense on its own, error messages that say what to do next. These are not decorations to add at the end; they are the grammar of the page, and they make it better for everyone.
A website is a broadsheet that is never finished printing.
Editable by your own hand
Your staff should be able to change opening hours, prices and news without corresponding with us. We choose an editor to match their confidence and arrange it so that the design is hard to break by accident.
Domains, DNS and the small type
Domains, DNS records, certificates, email authentication and backups are where websites quietly fail. We document each of them and, when moving hosts, schedule the change for a quiet hour with the old site ready to restore.
