Bay Area Web Design
Website design that earns its keep
Design here starts from what the site has to do, not from how it ought to look. The look is the last decision rather than the first.
How the work runs
The look is the third decision
Strategy
What the site has to do, who it is for, and what is not worth building. If you already have this, we work from yours. If you do not, it starts here, because everything after it is a guess otherwise.
Low-fidelity wireframes
Structure before surface. Where things go and in what order, with no colour or imagery to react to. You review and approve this before anything is designed.
High-fidelity design, in Figma
Now the look. Type, colour, imagery, states, and real content rather than placeholder. You review and approve again.
Implementation, or handover
We build it, or your developer does, or your team does. The approved Figma file is yours either way.
What you keep
You own the Figma file.
Design and build are two engagements, and plenty of clients take one without the other. If you want us to implement, we implement. If you have a developer, a team, or a platform partner already, the approved Figma file goes to them and we are done.
You paid for the design. You own the design.
WCAG 2.2 AA
Accessibility is not a stage
It is not a phase in the plan, it is how the work gets done. Structure, colour, states and content all get the same consideration as everything else, and when we see a problem we say so rather than leave it in a report nobody reads.
The standard we build to is WCAG 2.2 AA. If you are in a sector that requires AAA, we have done that too. That is a conversation about scope and budget rather than a box we tick.
Selected design work
Screens from sites we designed and, in most cases, built.

Honest direction
We will tell you which job you actually need
If the structure works and only the surface is tired, you want a visual refresh. That is a smaller job than this page describes and we will say so rather than sell you this one.
If people are not arriving at all, design is not the fix. That is a traffic problem, and it belongs on strategy or marketing.
If you already have approved designs and need them built, go straight to development. Paying us to redraw what you have already signed off buys you nothing.
