Design

Taking a user-centered approach to design focuses us on what really matters: your users.

This helps focus on the really important content, and gives great results across any device; mobile, desktop, and in-between.

Our focus is on the open source UNIX technology stack, PHP is our specialist programming language along with HTML/CSS/JavaScript. When required we work with trusted partners to provide specialised services (e.g. enterprise search, photography, video).
