Web design in Clerkenwell
Your website is seen by people who understand design. We build sites that load in the fastest tier, convert measurably, and stand up to the scrutiny of practices where visual standards are set by the work itself.
Web design for Clerkenwell businesses
Hubb Group is a digital agency and software company. Our studio is in Dubai and we work with UK clients remotely, on UK hours, with a named lead on every project. Contracts and invoices are issued by our UAE company, in pounds.
We measure: page load time (Core Web Vitals), accessibility compliance status (WCAG 2.2 AA), mobile performance separate from desktop, conversion funnel completion rates, and time to interaction. You see these metrics before launch. We also track performance post-launch so you know whether the site is working as intended for your visitor type.
Every project is a fixed quote with a clear timeline and clear milestones. You own the work and the accounts outright when we're done — no lock-in, and nothing you can't take with you.

Everything we deliver includes
Fixed prices
A clear quote and timeline up front — no open-ended retainers, no surprises.
A named lead
One person who knows the project, on UK hours, not a ticket queue.
Green Core Web Vitals
Built to pass Google's speed thresholds on a mid-range phone, not just on fibre.
WCAG 2.2 AA as the target
Built to it and tested against it, so accessibility is not a later retrofit.
Designed around the enquiry
Every page has one obvious next step, and we measure whether people take it.
Yours to own
You own the site, the hosting and the accounts. No lock-in, ever.
Websites built for how Clerkenwell buyers actually decide
Clerkenwell attracts architecture and design practices that judge work on craft first. Your website competes not just for attention, but for credibility with an audience trained to spot weak execution. We build sites where every detail—type, spacing, interaction, load time—reflects the standard your practice sets. No shortcuts.
Referral drives your new business. That means your site needs to prove capability to people who already know good work. It loads fast enough to hold attention. The conversion path is clear without being obvious. And it passes compliance review before you show it to anyone who matters.
Performance you can measure before launch
We run Core Web Vitals checks and accessibility audits (WCAG 2.2 AA as standard) as part of build, not after. You see load times, conversion funnel performance, and compliance status before the site goes live. That means no surprises when your team reviews it, and no delays waiting for external approval.
Mobile comes first in our build process. Most of your visitors arrive on phone. The site works there as well as it does on desktop—same speed, same clarity, same conversion path. We report on what matters: page load time, interaction speed, and how many visitors complete the actions you care about.
Design that works inside your approval chain
Architecture and design practices often have internal stakeholders, client sign-off requirements, or both. We build sites in a way that survives that process. Clear structure. Documented decisions. Compliance built in from the start, not retrofitted. You don't waste time negotiating with reviewers about technical debt.
Accessibility isn't an afterthought. It's part of how we design. Better contrast, clearer type hierarchy, logical tab order—these decisions make sites easier for everyone to use, and they make your site stronger when it's reviewed against standards. WCAG 2.2 AA is our target.
A website that represents your practice
Clerkenwell practices live by their portfolio. Your website is an extension of that work. We don't use templates or off-the-shelf components that compromise the visual intention. Every site is designed and built to fit your practice, your sector, and the way you want to be seen.
You already know what good looks like. We build sites that don't insult that knowledge. Fast. Accessible. Compliant. Built to convert people who are comparing you against others on merit. That's the only pitch that works in Clerkenwell.
Web design in Clerkenwell — common questions
How do you handle sign-off when there are multiple stakeholders?
We build with approval chains in mind. Documentation is clear. Compliance checks run before review, not after. You see the full performance picture—load times, accessibility status, conversion paths—early enough to loop in decision-makers without surprises.
Do you use templates or frameworks that compromise visual integrity?
No. Every site is designed and built from brief. We use clean, standards-based code. That means your site looks exactly as intended, loads fast, and doesn't carry bloat from pre-built components that don't serve your practice.
What happens if the site doesn't pass our internal compliance review?
We run compliance checks (WCAG 2.2 AA) during build, not after launch. You see the status before sign-off. We also document every accessibility decision so your team understands the reasoning and can brief stakeholders with confidence.
How fast does it actually load?
We target the top 1% of Core Web Vitals performance. That means pages load in under 1.5 seconds on typical mobile connections. We report actual performance before you launch, so you know exactly what visitors will experience.
Can you prove the conversion improvements?
We measure what matters: how many visitors reach key pages, how long they stay, whether they contact you or download what you're offering. You see baseline performance before launch and track changes after. We don't promise results, but we make results visible.
Does this work for practices with complex service offerings?
Yes. Architecture and design practices often have multiple service lines and audience types. We build clear conversion paths that let visitors find what they need without oversimplifying your offering. Structure and speed do the heavy lifting.
