Your website speaksbefore you do.

We make sure it says the right thing.

Selected work

Built around the business. Never around a template.

Different customers make different decisions. Every website should be designed around those decisions—not forced into the same layout with a new logo.

Good businesses shouldn’t have to apologise for their website.

If your work earns trust in person, your website should start earning it before the first conversation.

What we actually do.

Not a menu of buzzwords. Just the parts your website needs to earn attention and turn it into action.

01Positioning and strategy
We find the message your customers actually need to hear—and remove everything getting in its way.
02Website design
Distinctive, responsive design built around real customer decisions, not decoration.
03Website development
Fast, accessible and maintainable builds that behave as well as they look.
04E-commerce and booking
Shorter, clearer paths from interest to order, appointment or enquiry.
05SEO and performance
Strong technical foundations so people—and search engines—can find and use your website.
06Care and growth
Updates, improvements and someone who still answers after the website launches.
See how each one works

No mystery. No disappearing act.

You always know what we’re doing, why we’re doing it and what happens next.

01ListenYour business, customers and goals come before layouts and colours.
02Find the directionWe turn what we learn into one clear message, structure and visual idea.
03Design and buildYou see the website take shape while we make sure it works beautifully everywhere.
04Launch and improveWe launch carefully, review honestly and stay available when the next improvement matters.

Small studio. Serious attention.

I’m Akshay, the founder of Slate Wave Studio. I started the studio after seeing too many genuinely good businesses represented by websites that felt slow, confusing or forgettable.

I handle the thinking and the build, so the idea doesn’t get lost between a designer, a developer and three account managers. You get one clear point of contact—and a website built with purpose.

Strategy, design and development—without the agency runaround.
