Discovery Phase

Our first stage in website design is the discovery phase, we need to understand your operational goals, your customer profile and your competitors. Whether our discovery meeting is face to face or on the phone/over video we want to fully immerse ourselves in your business so we can design the right website experience for your customers. 

We start off by creating your new sitemap and the flow of your customer’s journeys on your website. Then through wireframe creation we can focus on what content is important on the page and define the structure. We will create a number of different wireframes for you to review. Then once a direction is chosen our design team will make your website look all shiny and exciting!

Prototyping


Bringing your website design to life via interactive prototyping

At the prototyping stage we will present your website designs to you as interactive content for review. Working from the wireframes created we will dress your site with typography, imagery, page layouts and illustration. Custom artwork and banners can all be designed, as well as exploring animation, loading techniques and fully mapping out the navigation to review user flow through your site. All of which you’ll be able to review to scale in real time via a shareable URL, showing you how your site will look once it’s built. 

Fully responsive website design

Ensuring your website works on all devices

It is essential that your new website works seamlessly across all devices and browsers, so we make sure that responsive web design is an integral part of our process. At the design stage we will also map out the mobile layouts and any changes we need to make during development to aid the mobile user experience. To ensure your customers are getting the ultimate digital experience we can build separate desktop and mobile websites, which will intuitively load depending on device. We can explore different animations, transitions, layouts… the sky really is the limit!

Illustration

Enhance your website design and make an impact

Don’t be scared to be bold. We’ll give your website that extra edge so it stands out from the crowd and tells your brand story. Custom elements such as icons and illustrations can really help enhance your users experience of your website.

We will come up with creative solutions for displaying content, always ensuring that the style and context is in keeping with your branding and tone of voice.


Icon Design

Custom icon design

Bespoke icon design is a great way to present your content and further reinforce your brand identity as part of your website design. As part of your web design project we can create custom icons to display a variety of different information.

We approach icon design for websites the same way we do all design jobs – we review your branding and the type of information you’re wanting to visualise to determine the right style. Icons don’t have to be corporate, they can be fun and different – whether that’s in their content or the design style.

Illustration

We specialise in designing creative, original and fun illustrations. Custom illustrations as part of your website design add personality and character, and deliver messaging to your customers in personal ways. We’ll define the style for these so they fit in with your branding, your tone of voice and the information you want to convey. If you already have illustrations that make up your brand identity we can come up with exciting, and creative ways to display these on your website.

WordPress

Custom theme development

We primarily use WordPress as our CMS of choice – it’s intuitive, adaptable and flexible, whilst also providing a user friendly content management system. We aren’t just restricted to WordPress so if your project requires a different approach we can provide an alternative solution.

We develop custom themes and plugins, using HTML5 and CSS3. Through custom coding we reduce the limitations and restrictions you find with off the shelf themes, allowing us to create completely bespoke, beautifully designed and coded websites.

The web is changing rapidly, so we always ensure we are exploring new technologies and techniques to deliver the best website development to our customers. We are always learning and developing as a team. We only work with the finest web developers and ensure we maintain best practices throughout all our work.

 

Search Engine Optimisation

Building sites in an SEO friendly way

A key consideration for any new web design is SEO, so we ensure that all our sites are structured and built in an SEO-friendly way. Our team understands the principles of SEO so we ensure all our sites adhere to best practices.

At our discovery phase we will discuss SEO with you. Whether we’re redesigning or building a website for a new business SEO needs to be considered at this stage. We can provide support services for SEO set up or work with your SEO agency so they can implement your on-page SEO strategy.

 

 

We can include a full audit of SEO current performance, which will highlight keywords to target with the new site. Or carry out keyword research for your industry and advise on keywords for pages. As part of this service we can also provide on-page SEO services for your website launch: writing meta titles and descriptions and allocating keywords to each page.
