WHAT BLOCKWORKS MAKES / THREE DIFFERENT NEEDS
We don't sell everyone the same stack. Start with what you already have, keep any booking or payment service that works, and add only the missing piece.
A considered home for your services, portfolio, location, answers and approved contact routes. Great when people need to understand what you do before they get in touch.
A site that helps someone choose what to enquire about: products, quantities, preferred times, policies, and a reviewable request. No fake checkout or automatic booking.
For an owner who needs more than a website: a product list, a request queue, stock notes and customer-response preparation in one manageable workspace. A prototype, not a hosted business system.
BEYOND A SINGLE NICHE
Every business has different customers, content and constraints. These are example use cases, not a claim that we have worked with these sectors.
Specialised, regulated or sensitive activities need their own content, approvals and data safeguards. We do not claim ready-made compliance.
SELECTED / INTERACTIVE STUDIES
Explore different art directions and working request flows. These three studies are fictional, not client projects.

HOW IT BECOMES YOURS
Your actual menu, photos, prices and the way customers already reach you. We confirm what would be useful before proposing scope.
See a tailored design and try the request journey. You review the content, price, hosting and timeline before any payment.
We publish your approved website, test it on small and large screens, supply a QR and explain how updates work.
WEBSITE BUILD FEES / INDICATIVE SGD
Website pricing below is indicative, not a fixed quote. Interactive storefront functions and owner-side operations are separately scoped. We agree costs, hosting and work before payment.
01 / ESSENTIALS
S$180–350
For a simple menu, gallery and clear first enquiry.
02 / EXPANDED
S$350–700
For a fuller catalogue and more detailed enquiry needs.
Need something smaller, a different layout, or a connection to your existing booking provider? Describe what you actually need. We can quote a different scope without forcing either package.
Discuss your scope on Instagram ↗Indicative SGD one-off build ranges, not customer-specific prices or guaranteed final quotes. No client transaction is implied.
Domain purchase, paid hosting, monthly maintenance, professional photography, payment collection, live availability locking, customer accounts, CRM, automated reminders and custom integrations require a separate scope and quote.
Any third-party subscription fees, content ownership, change requests and timeline are agreed in writing before starting. We never replace an existing booking tool without a reason and the owner's approval.
The fictional demos do not collect requests, confirm bookings or accept payment.
A FEW USEFUL ANSWERS
No. The starter prepares a request and can open the business-approved WhatsApp chat. The visitor chooses whether to send. The owner confirms availability, price and payment arrangements personally.
Not yet. The linked Store Desk is an interactive fictional prototype showing requests, stock notes, response drafts and local exports. It has no secure customer accounts, cloud database, reconciled transactions, POS or payment connection. Real owner-side software would need requirements, access controls, privacy safeguards and separately agreed support.
Keep what works. A branded website can introduce your business and link to your existing approved booking provider. We will only propose it if that extra page is useful to you.
Your business name, authorised logo and photos, up to six listings with prices, hours, public contact route, FAQs and policies. You approve all content and asset use before launch.
The included guide explains content updates. The local editor exports configuration; it does not publish online. Developer-assisted redeployment is needed. A live owner dashboard or ongoing update service needs separate scope.
No. Atelier Lune, Soft Focus and Crumb & Co. are fictional, interactive design concepts. We do not claim client results, testimonials or completed sales from them.
The demonstrations keep form details in the current tab and have no submission server or analytics. Hosting providers receive normal access logs and Google Fonts receives font requests. A launched website uses only the contact routes and privacy wording approved for that business.
A BETTER FIRST IMPRESSION STARTS WITH A QUESTION
Show us your existing website, menu, booking tool or enquiry process. We’ll discuss whether a site or a small workflow change is actually useful.
