Work that earns its place on the screen.

Four disciplines. One studio. No hand-offs.
Strategy, design and engineering sit at the same table from the first call to launch day. That is why the work looks the way it was meant to and runs the way it should.
-
Websites that are composed, not assembled. We design every screen around the one thing it has to do, then make it fast, accessible and a pleasure to use on a phone held at arm's length on a bus.
- UX & UI
- Art direction
- Design systems
- E-commerce
- Prototyping
- Accessibility
-
Identities with a point of view. We start with the words a brand would use if it could talk, then build the marks, type, colour and motion that let it say them everywhere, from the favicon to the side of a van.
- Strategy & positioning
- Naming
- Visual identity
- Tone of voice
- Motion identity
- Guidelines
-
Campaign sites, launches, installations and product moments that people remember and share. The kind of thing a brand does once a year and talks about for the next three.
- Campaign microsites
- Product launches
- Interactive storytelling
- 3D & WebGL
- Installations
- Apps
-
Engineering with taste. Our developers care about the easing curve as much as the Lighthouse score, and ship code your in-house team will be happy to inherit.
- Front-end engineering
- Headless CMS
- Shopify & commerce
- Motion & animation
- Performance
- Support & growth
Our approach
Our approach
Most websites are built to be approved. Ours are built to be looked at twice, read to the end and returned to. We would rather make one brave decision than ten safe ones, and we will tell you which is which.
Brave by default
Every project gets at least one idea that makes someone in the room nervous. That is usually the idea people remember.
Craft at every zoom level
The headline, the hover state, the 404 page, the loading curve. If a user can see it, it has been designed.
Measured, not guessed
We set the numbers we are aiming at before we open a design file, and we report on them after launch, good or bad.
How a project runs, start to finish.
Five stages, each with a clear deliverable and a decision at the end. A typical site takes ten to fourteen weeks; a brand and site together, closer to twenty.
- 01
Listen
Stakeholder interviews, audience research and a hard look at what the current site actually does.
Weeks 1–2 - 02
Shape
Strategy, sitemap, content model and a creative direction with real words and real images.
Weeks 2–4 - 03
Craft
Design in the browser as early as possible. You see motion and interaction, not static boards.
Weeks 4–9 - 04
Ship
Build, content, QA on real devices, performance and accessibility audits, then launch day.
Weeks 9–13 - 05
Grow
Analytics review at 30 and 90 days, then a roadmap of what to improve next.
Ongoing
Years of making things people did not expect from a seaside town.
Projects shipped, from one-page launches to global platforms.
Industry awards for design, development and digital craft.
Of clients have come back for a second project, or sent a friend.
Kind words
What it is like to work with us, in their words.
Drag, scroll or use the arrows. Every quote is from a project you can see above.
They did not just redesign our site. They rebuilt how we sell a lodge. Qualified viewings are up 44% and the sales team finally trust the website.
Every agency promises craft. Code Creative are the first who delivered it at the level of the pixel and the sentence at the same time.
Sixty offices, one brand, and not a single franchisee who felt it was done to them rather than with them. That is the part we did not think was possible.
They turned a legal process most people dread into something you can understand in two minutes. Our enquiries went up and our cost per case came down.
The site feels like the gym does at 6am. Members join from their phones before they have even visited, which has never happened before.
Start a project
Let's make something worth a second look.
Tell us what you are trying to change and we will reply within one working day with honest thoughts, a rough shape for the project and the two or three questions we would ask first.
