Web Design & WordPress Development for Bath Businesses
Based in Yeovil, we work with businesses in Bath and across the South West. From WordPress redesigns to a more demanding ecommerce brief, we connect the creative and technical decisions from the start.
A stronger website starts before the first layout.
When a website stops representing the business properly, a new visual treatment is only part of the answer. Visitors may struggle to understand the services, find relevant examples or work out which enquiry route to use. Behind the scenes, even a simple update can become unnecessarily difficult.
We start with those problems. What needs explaining? Which pages help someone make a decision? What should your team be able to update? The answers shape the content, navigation and design before development begins.
The result is a site with a reason behind its layouts: clear service pages, useful project evidence and editing components suited to the content. Your existing identity can be retained and developed, or branding can form part of the brief when it needs more substantial work.
Understand the brief.
We review your existing site, audience, content and practical requirements. The proposal sets out the work, responsibilities, dependencies and review stages, so design begins with an agreed direction.
Design around the decisions.
We organise the pages and journeys, then develop layouts around what customers need to understand. Typography, imagery and interface details give the site its character without getting in the way of using it.
Build the working system.
Custom development turns the design into reusable components, navigation and functionality. We plan the editing experience alongside the public pages, rather than leaving your team with a difficult system to manage.
Prepare for launch and beyond.
The agreed checks cover key journeys, forms, responsive layouts and technical setup. For a replacement site, we also plan URL changes and redirects. Handover, hosting and ongoing support are agreed as part of the scope.
The right platform. The right level of custom work.
A service website, a growing catalogue and a trade store ask different things of their platform. We work through the content, customer journey and management requirements before recommending the build.
-
Website design
Bespoke layouts and a coherent visual direction, shaped around your services, brand and customer decisions, not a template with the colours changed.
-
WordPress development
Custom themes, structured editing and functionality suited to the brief. A flexible foundation for businesses that need their website to do more than display a few pages.
-
Shopify development
Storefront design and front-end development for product-led businesses, including more involved navigation, product presentation and buying interfaces.
-
SEO
Search considerations built into the page structure and technical decisions, with wider technical, on-page and local SEO work available under a separate agreed scope.
For a business that has outgrown its website.
Perhaps your services have changed, but the website still explains the old business. Perhaps a stronger brand needs an equally considered digital presence. Or perhaps the site looks acceptable, yet its navigation, editing tools or product interfaces make everyday tasks harder than they should be.
These are the briefs where joined-up design and development matter. We can help establish a clearer service structure, develop a more useful content system or build front-end functionality around a specific buying journey.
Not every problem needs a complete rebuild. We assess what is worth keeping and explain where focused improvements make sense. For a larger redesign, we agree the content, migration and technical requirements before committing to the visual direction.

Brand clarity and custom development, demonstrated through real projects.
For Geo-Design, our work brought specialist branding and custom WordPress development together for a rock engineering consultancy. The website gives a technical business a distinctive visual identity and a structured way to present its expertise, sectors and projects.
A different challenge came with Birchwood Price Tools. We redesigned and developed the Shopify front end, including product discovery and ordering interfaces. The existing agency retained responsibility for launch and third-party integrations.
Together, these projects show how we connect visual design with the practical development each business needs.

What our clients say.
Kieron recently worked with a fellow designer to bring our company branding across to a brand new website for us. Despite differences in terminology and working styles, Kieron was excellent at bridging the gaps. Kieron is patient, and adapted to our evolving ideas with clear communication. He was flexible as the project scope shifted and brought a calm, constructive presence to each stage of development, including allowing us to work on content in parallel to meet our tight timeline. Kieron’s guidance, grounded in his experience, helped shape the way our site feels whilst maintaining our brand. We’re really pleased with the result and appreciate Kieron’s collaborative approach throughout the process.

Built for the people you need to reach.
A Bath business may rely on local enquiries, sell specialist services further afield or supply products across the country. The website should reflect that reach.
We plan service pages, project evidence and contact routes around the actual brief. Where search is important, we consider which page should answer each need and how it connects to the rest of the site.
Blunt Notion is based in Yeovil, Somerset. Projects can be managed through focused calls, design reviews and development demonstrations, with meetings agreed when useful. Scope, feedback stages and responsibilities are established early, keeping the work clear from the first conversation to handover.
Questions to settle before your website project.
A useful proposal starts with an honest discussion about what needs to change. These answers explain our approach before you get in touch.
We are based in Yeovil, Somerset and work with businesses across the South West. A Bath based project doesn’t require a local office to be managed well: we use calls, shared reviews and development demonstrations, with in-person meetings agreed where useful.
Cost depends on the design, content, page types, functionality and any migration or integrations. Send your existing website and an outline of what you need, including a budget range if you have one. We will discuss the options and provide a scoped proposal rather than quote for an undefined package.
Yes. A redesign can retain your logo and develop the typography, colour, imagery and layouts around it. If the identity itself needs work, branding can be included in the scope. We agree what is changing before design starts.
Where the existing platform and code provide a sensible foundation, focused improvements may be the better option. We review the content, theme, editing setup and technical constraints first. If a rebuild is justified, we explain why and what can be retained.
We plan around the pages and URLs that matter, identify proposed changes and agree redirects where needed. Structure, metadata and indexability form part of the technical brief. A redesign is not a ranking guarantee, and ongoing SEO is separate work, but avoidable migration problems should be addressed before launch.
Yes. We work with Shopify as well as WordPress and WooCommerce. The recommendation depends on your catalogue, content, customer accounts, buying journey and integration requirements. Any third-party systems and responsibilities are agreed explicitly rather than assumed to be included.
We can provide an editing setup and handover suited to your team’s routine updates. Hosting, maintenance and further development are also available. The proposal explains what is included, which tasks need developer support and any ongoing platform or licence costs.
We agree the programme after understanding the scope, content readiness and technical dependencies. Review stages, responsibilities and launch requirements are included. If there is a fixed deadline, raise it at the start so we can discuss what is achievable.
