Our manifesto

We treat your business like it's our own. That means we don't just take the brief and build what's on it. We go looking for the problems worth solving, including the ones nobody has named yet.

A brand, a website, an app, the photography, the marketing that carries it: whatever moves things forward, we do it properly and we own the result.

  • Solve the real problem, not just the brief.
  • Treat your business like it's our own.
  • Take it further than you asked.

Everything your brand needs

Five disciplines, one studio. Take one, or hand us the lot.

Web design

Fast, well-ranked sites that turn visitors into enquiries. Managed on a plan or built as a one-off.

App design

Product and app interfaces designed to feel obvious to use, from first sketch to shipped screens.

Branding

Identities with a point of view, built to hold up everywhere they land, not just on the logo sheet.

Your project

Something else, or a bit of everything? Tell us what you're working on and we'll shape the right mix.

Start a project

They treated our launch like it was their own company on the line.

They found problems we didn't know we had, then fixed them properly.

Brand, photos and the emails, all finally pulling in one direction.

The kind of work people talk about.

The site paid for itself inside a few months.

Felt less like an agency, more like part of our team.

Frequently asked questions

New studio, plenty of questions. Here are the ones we hear most.

What does Harpenden Design do?

We're a UK creative studio. We handle web design, app design, branding, photography and the marketing that carries it, either one piece or the whole picture.

How do you price projects?

Every project is scoped around what you actually need, so we quote after a short call rather than selling fixed packages. Tell us what you're after and we'll come back with a clear scope and a figure.

How quickly can you start?

We reply to every enquiry within a working day, and can usually get going within a couple of weeks depending on scope.

Can you take on just one thing, like photography?

Yes. Take one discipline or hand over the lot. Plenty of clients start with a single project and grow from there.

Do you work with businesses outside the UK?

We're UK-based and work mostly with UK brands, but if the fit is right we're happy to talk wherever you are.

What happens after launch?

We can keep a site or system maintained and improving on an ongoing basis, or hand it over for you to run. Your call.

Still have questions?

Send a short note through the contact form and we'll get back to you within a working day.
