Our Approach
The Six Layers of Design
We’ve developed our own design methodology (the six layers of design) and process (p/met/s) to guide us through every project. That’s because, along with great strategy, smarter design thinking is a critical element in how we create success for our clients.
Web Development Methodology
Focused on the critical details
Not all websites are created equal. The visual layer might be well designed, yet the code under the hood is a mess. Result: poor performance and unhappy visitors who become frustrated with your site.
We stick to a strict internal standard to ensure your site is optimized for speed and search, totally functional, and easy to manage and update.
