Your business. Impossible to ignore.
Custom websites for any business, built one layer at a time. Try a working version before anything goes live.
01 / Proof first
Hiring a web designer should not feel like a gamble.
You have heard the stories. Paid up front, then silence. A site held hostage. A pretty page that never brought in a call. Here is how we take the risk out.
- 01
See it working first.
Open ten working concept sites today. Before your own site launches, you try a working preview on desktop, tablet, and phone.
- 02
Approve every step.
You see the direction, try the build, and sign off on the details. Nothing goes live until you say so.
- 03
Own all of it.
Your domain, your hosting, your code. All in your name from day one.
- 04
Know the price first.
Builds start at $500. Your quote sets the timeline and the revision rounds before any work begins.
02 / The work
Looks that stop you. Sites that work.
These are working websites, not screenshots. Open one, tap through the menus, fill in a form, and switch to the phone view.
Nine come from trades, industrial, and automotive. One is a gym. The same care goes into any business, yours included.
Nine are fictional design concepts. Bad Company Choppers is a pitch concept for a real shop, with placeholder photos, prices and stories. None of the ten is a client endorsement or a measured result.
03 / What goes into it
Four layers. One website.
- 01
Story
We start with what makes your business different, then say it clearly. A visitor should know what you do and what to do next within seconds.
- 02
Design
Art direction made for your brand. Not another template with your logo dropped in.
- 03
Motion
Cinematic media and carefully paced movement. It supports the story and never gets between your customers and what they need.
- 04
Function
Service finders, project planners, clear inquiry forms, and optional AI workflows. We agree on what connects and who approves it before anything goes live.
04 / How it works
No black box. Just a clear path.
- DISCOVER
Find your edge.
We learn the business, the audience, and what the website has to do.
- DIRECT
Set the feeling.
We agree on the look, the message, and the cinematic moments before the build starts.
- BUILD
Make it real.
You try a working preview and we refine it together on desktop, tablet, and phone.
- LAUNCH
Make it yours.
You review, approve, and launch in your own accounts, with a clear handoff.
Nothing launches until you are ready.
A custom-built website like the ones in our portfolio.
05 / Price and ownership
Your business. Your website. Your control.
- Hosting and domain are priced separately and stay in your name.
- Add-ons are available: extra pages, original photography, copywriting, and integrations.
- Every quote includes a build timeline and a set number of revision rounds, agreed before work starts.
You hold the keys. We work with delegated access and a clearly agreed scope, not lock-in.
Start your project06 / Questions
A few good questions.
No. Nine of the ten, including Summit Comfort HVAC, are working concept builds with fictional business names and contact details. Bad Company Choppers is a pitch concept for a real shop, not a finished client site. They show design and function, not client relationships or measured results.
The base package starts at $500 for a custom-built website like the ones in our portfolio. Hosting and domain are priced separately. Add-ons such as extra pages, original photography, copywriting, and integrations are available. Every quote includes a build timeline and a set number of revision rounds, agreed before work starts.
You work directly with Christian Skalak, the founder. The timeline and the revision rounds are written into your quote before work starts, and you try a working preview before anything launches.
You do. The domain, the hosting account, and the code are yours from day one. We work with delegated access and an agreed scope, not lock-in.
A template is fine if you only need to exist online. If your website has to win the customer, it should be shaped around your customers, your story, and the next action that matters. That is what we build.
No. This site is a creative showcase. Your website should use the right tools for your audience, whether that is a cinematic opening or a fast, focused service page. Readability, accessibility, and speed come first.
Yes, as a separately scoped Proofstack project. We first agree on what connects, what data it can access, and which actions need human approval.
Ongoing updates are available on a simple monthly care plan or billed per request, whichever fits how often you expect to change things. Hosting typically runs a few dollars a month, in an account under your own name, and we help you set it up.
