With 15 years industry experience in the changing digital world we promise a new level of service for your brand and website.
We took 15 years industry experience and bootstrapped a new model blending design and development into one department instead of siloed project stages to produce best in class design and build for brand and web.
Integrated interactive design for apps, websites and screens of all imaginations. We produce products and experiences that look inviting, feel friendly and work intuitively.
The basis of any good web build is infrastructure. We create websites for all manner of clients always with two principles. First, that they capture visitors engagement within 3 seconds whatever device or screen they are using. Second, that they should be able to evolve as the company develops for years to come.
Where strategy meets design. We may call ourselves the brand experts but no-one knows the business better than the people who work there. We work closely to find out what it means to them internally and survey the market to find an appropriate positioning opportunity. From there we conceive and enhance the brands, not jut as beautifully aesthetic looks and emblems for your business but hardworking and longlasting marketing assets for decades.

Studio Amer exceeded expectations. Beautiful design capturing my proposition, alongside a seamless digital experience. The process was collaborative, clear & stress-free. Couldn't recommend more highly
Studio Amer is a game-changer! Took the leap and went from zero to brand to website in half the expected time. These guys get the art of effective design.
Every tech project has its complications. Studio Amer were ahead of them in a way that always bore out. We were able to be hands off and just enjoy every presentation and launch.
Extremely happy with Studio Amer and the work they've supplied. Three years later, we're still using it as the touchstone and platform for our brand and business. It's paid for itself maybe 100 times over... so far
Highly recommend Studio Amer as a design partner. A rare breadth of creativity and ability means they can take you from strategy to design to build launch like no other I've seen. Bosh.
Studio Amer was founded by designer, developer & creative director Jordan Amer to create high-performing digital experiences by leveraging the latest & most effective tools in the fast-developing tech-space.

We typically work with clients within the following project brackets:
1. Get in touch here
2. After our call, we will create a scope of work and proposal for your approval
3. Once approved, we'll send a contract for you to sign.
4. Once signed, we will send out an initial 50% invoice due to begin work.
5. Upon completion of the invoice, we will set-up communication channels and schedule our kick-off call.
For simple sitemap of all the pages included within your project scope will be okay to start. For more complicated projects we recommend creating an RFP or scope of work for us to review and quote against.
Here's some steps on where to start with your scope of work:
1. Send us a list of the pages you want on your site (sitemap/information architecture). Doesn’t necessarily have to be detailed or final. We just need an idea.
2. Send us a few websites that you love and think represent your vision for your new website in an aesthetic or functional way.
3. Do you need a logo & brand identity or will we be working with your current brand assets. Let us know your preference
4. If you already have the designs for your site completed and just need webflow development, send us the designs to review and we can go from there.
6. Include whether you think anything within your build may require extra development time. Integrations like filterred searching, API integration are technical challenges that take more time.
7. If you already have a webflow site and would like it changed up, send us your log ins and we'll make sure that our development-conventions are aligned to your existing build.
Our team will take in all of this information and create a scope of work proposal for us to review. Once you’re ready, we can review the SoW Proposal together over a follow-up call.
For a new website, redesign, migration or development:
50% on commencement. 50% on completion.
For scope of work add-ons during an active project:
To keep projects streamlined: 100% paid upfront.
To sign-up for a Webflow account you must first choose an account plan, most clients end-up signing up for the “Free” plan.
Once you have set-up an account plan and you've create a Webflow website within your Dashboard you'll need to add a hosting plan. The CMS plan is usually the one to go for and comes in at $23/month billed annually.
We can help you choose the right plan for your project. For current options – have a look at the webflow site
We're a tiny team at the moment. Led by founder Jordan Amer. With support from a network of mostly UK and western europe based freelancers
3 years specifically with webflow. But it's important to note that webflow isn't like any other turn key web builder. It's essentially a visual coding interface. It writes the empirical code for your designs. Since we've been coding for web for 15 years+ our understanding of webflow goes back a lot further. It's why we can appreciate it so much.
That's a great and important question.
The Webflow Designer is where we build your site structure, design, content, interactions, animations, and custom code to create fully functioning expert level websites. Here, you visually manipulate the HTML content, set CSS properties, and create interactions without writing any javascript – instead of writing code, you manipulate it visually. And, as you build your website and lay out your content, the Designer creates incredibly clean, semantic code that’s ready to publish to the web. With this said the Webflow Designer takes training just like any pro-level tool (Photoshop, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premier, etc)
Unlike the Designer, The Webflow Editor is where you to edit and manage the content. With its simple, easy-to-use interface, the Editor gives you a number of tools to manage assets, content and on-page SEO. With a strong usage plan this can be changed dramatically within preset bounds without negatively effecting user experience. Meaning, with little know-how or training you can operate and update the site without having to use the developer regularly.
Absolutely. We offer this as standard with site handover.
We also offer block hours for purchase which can be used for development and consultation (including training) if you'd like to continue staff and site development on an ongoing basis.
Indeed we can, we can set up strong SEO foundations and have we have a few trusted partner agencies that we can recommend for ongoing SEO.
We'll present the site for you in a hidden holding page until it's time for launch. We are 100% hands on for launch to make sure everything is in working order. Post launch, we'll be available within the project fee for 30 days to provide ongoing support. Depending on the size of your team we can also issue a mini training series crafted specifically for your build. After 30 days we will still be available to contact about arising issues or new development. You may wish to block book hours to use over the year for ongoing support. More on this just below.
Although maintaining content, copy, and assets through the Webflow CMS (Editor) is straightforward for clients to manage, some clients will need additional development & Webflow build support. We offer a pre-paid block of hours with us upfront to use as they see fit over a 12 month period. These hours are to be used on any development, consultation, or Webflow related need. Our development support blocks do not include any design (figma, XD, Sketch) services. Design is typically handled on a flat-rate basis only as apart of our end-to-end design & development projects.
Hour Blocks:
10 hours x £130 Flat rate - £1300
20 hours x £120Flat rate - £2400
40 hours x £110 Flat rate – £4400
*All hours expire after 12 months.
Naturally this heavily depends on the scope of work but as an estimate: most design & development projects take between 1-3 months. We'll be able to give you a much better impression after a quick discovery call.
Simply put, it greatly reduces the developer bottleneck by giving the ability to make changes to the marketing team instead of relying on new code. Often times the webflow developer is also a great designer. Further streamlining a traditionally lengthy process!
Migration from webflow to Wordpress is quite simple with a plugin but for Squarespace or Wordpress to Webflow it tends make more sense to rebuild the entire site fresh with webflow. Whilst we're there we may want to evaluate what improvements you might want to make to the site too.
If done correctly, it won't. As long as the agency you are working with is following best practices to retain your current URL structure and implement accurate 301 redirects you can avoid any lasting negative effects, and leverage the positive SEO effects of your redesign.
We can indeed. Hubspot's a very powerful platform so it would be great to have a little more information so we could scope potentials. But for the most in demand Hubspot services – organising form submissions for the CRM and site-tracking we can absolutely facilitate. Hotjar, Google Analytics and similar products are also straight-forward to integrate through APIs.
Sure can. Zapier is the tool we use to execute these sort of logic connections.For example, populating an Airtable grid.
We certainly can. There's a healthy overlap here with web design which tends to drive efficiency. It's also all part of our specialty.
Let's discuss it! We always design something a particular way with good reason and sound strategy so you can feel confident and excited in it. If something doesn’t feel right, we can definitely find a solution.
Absolutely. It's important not to throw out any brand equity you've earned lightly. We'll always look to build best-in-class for the guidelines you have in place, the aspirations you hold, and the category you're in!
