Why hire a small studio over a London agency?

You're a small business with high standards. So are we. No account managers between you and the work.

01

10× cheaper, same standard

London agencies typically start at £5,000–20,000 for SMB websites. We deliver the same standard at £1,190–3,090 fixed price.

02

You own everything

Domain, source code, all images, every account (Google, Stripe, Meta) — registered to you on day one. No lock-in, no hidden retainer.

03

Direct contact

No account managers, no junior designers handed your project. You speak to the person who designs and builds your site.

How we work with London clients

Standard delivery is remote — Cal.com for kickoff, Loom videos for progress updates, weekly check-ins by email or short call. For Launch-tier projects we offer in-person kickoff and presentation in London (Hackney, City, anywhere central).

Day-to-day timezone overlap is no issue — Oslo is 1 hour ahead of London, business hours align cleanly. Average response time within working hours: under 2 hours.

FAQ — London web design

How much does a website cost in London?

From £1,190 fixed for Start (one custom page). £2,790 for Growth (multi-page with CMS). £6,290 for Launch (full brand + photography + ads setup). London agencies typically start at £5,000+ for comparable work.

Do you offer in-person meetings in London?

Yes. Kickoff and presentation meetings can be in-person at a London location of your choice. Day-to-day work runs remotely with Loom videos and weekly check-ins.

What about VAT and invoicing?

We invoice in £GBP with proper UK VAT handling. Cross-border B2B invoices use reverse-charge VAT where applicable. We can also invoice directly through a UK partner if your accountant prefers.

How long does delivery take?

Start: 7–10 business days. Growth: 14–21 business days. Launch: 4–6 weeks. Concrete date upfront — we hold it or credit 10%.

Do you use WordPress?

No. WordPress needs plugins that often get hacked. We use static HTML or modern frameworks (Astro, Next.js) — faster, more secure, easier to maintain.
