How long does a web design project take?

Most projects launch in 4 to 8 weeks from kickoff. Timeline depends on scope, how quickly you can provide content, and how many revision rounds we work through. We share a detailed schedule at the start of every project.

Do you use WordPress?

No. We build with Astro, a modern static site framework that produces faster, more secure websites than WordPress. If you need a CMS for content updates, we integrate lightweight options like Decap CMS or Keystatic that give you editing power without the bloat.

What's included in a typical project?

Discovery call, sitemap planning, wireframes, visual design, development, basic SEO setup, testing across devices, and launch. Copywriting and photography are typically provided by the client or quoted separately.

How much does a website cost?

Projects range from $3,500 for a focused brochure site to $15,000+ for a larger build with custom features. We provide a detailed quote after a free discovery call — no pressure and no obligation.
