Thoughtful web work.
Built, audited and advised.
We design and build modern websites, audit existing ones for accessibility, security and performance, and act as a fractional CTO for small teams who need a steady hand.
Services
What we do.
Services with one shared goal - helping teams deliver services for people.
Website design & build
Bespoke, production-ready websites built on modern stacks. Fast, accessible and easy to maintain from day one.
Website audits & reviews
A clear-eyed look at an existing site - UX, code quality, SEO foundations - with a prioritised plan for what to fix first.
Accessibility testing
WCAG 2.2 evaluations that cover automated checks, manual walkthroughs and assistive-tech testing, with actionable remediation.
Security testing
Web application security reviews, dependency and configuration audits, and guidance that fits real-world release cycles.
Performance testing
Core Web Vitals, load testing and render-path analysis. Measurable wins for real users on real devices and networks.
Fractional CTO & tech advisory
Senior technical leadership for small teams - architecture, hiring, roadmap and the tough calls, without a full-time hire.
Code reviews
Thorough, constructive code reviews that go beyond style and syntax to cover architecture, security and maintainability.
Introduction to AI
Practical workshops and training sessions that demystify AI concepts and tools, empowering teams to leverage AI effectively.
NHS & GOV.UK Design System training
Hands-on team training on the NHS Design System, GOV.UK Design System and GOV.UK Prototype Kit - from getting started to shipping to the Service Standard.
About
A small studio with senior hands.
Run by Adam Chrimes - a Software Developer with a long history of building services, helping teams, and quietly fixing the things that hold services back.
I work directly with founders, product leads and small agencies. No account managers, no hand-offs - the person you brief is the person who writes the code and signs the report.
My background spans front-end engineering, accessibility, application security and platform work. That breadth means I can audit a site honestly and rebuild the bits that need it, rather than recommending something outside my own experience.
Every engagement starts the same way - understand the problem, measure what matters, and ship something the team can keep running long after I'm gone.
