Side Door Studio

A small independent studio

Good things come in the side way.

We make websites, apps and little online products: useful, well made and friendly, without the agency price tag or the fuss.

What we make

Small, sharp, made with care. Whether it's your first website or an idea for an app you've been sitting on, we'll help you get it out of your head and onto the internet.

Websites

Clean, fast sites for small businesses, makers and side projects. Easy to update, nice to look at, found on Google.

Apps

Web and mobile apps that do one job really well, from booking tools to the idea you sketched on a napkin.

Our own little things

Alongside client work we build and run our own small sites and products. It keeps us sharp, and some of them are rather fun.

Why the side door?

The front door is for formal visits. The side door is for friends, the way in when you already know where the kettle is. That's the kind of studio we want to be.

Side Door Studio is run by Laura and Ian. We're a small, two-person outfit, which means you talk to the people actually doing the work, things move quickly, and nothing gets lost in a chain of account managers.

We like simple tools, plain English and websites that load before you've finished blinking.

Work in progress

Our own little products, built and run under the Side Door roof. Small, useful, and more on the way.
