We provide website development services. We work with content management systems such as: Tina CMS, WordPress and Craft CMS and create custom responsive Immersive Web-based Experiences.
Hugo is the fastest static site generator in the world. Coupled together with Tina CMS, this content management system provides an elegant way to manage the contents of your website. You can manage your content for free without the need to edit code!
WordPress is the leading content management system in the world that powers up 43% of all websites created on the web. WordPress is highly supported and has a vast community to back it up. We can design and develop a custom coded WordPress website.
Craft is the most flexible and powerful content management system. It offers excellent SEO and allows you to create unique experiences for the web. Released by Pixel and Tonic in 2013, Craft is gaining popularity, and is recognized for its incredible ease of use.
We can develop a unique web-based experience using immersive technology with WebGL. We create 3D experiences and scrolling animation. Create a truly unique experience for your website visitors and experience the power of the immersive web.
Every project will have a slightly different custom website workflow. Although the workflow depends on the client's project, all projects follow a similar workflow. You can see as outlined below how we create professional websites.
This is where we sit down and discuss the project together. We go over the project brief, and establish the scope of the work and the cost. Then, once the written agreement and contract has been prepared and signed, we begin the project.
The first step to build a great website, is to plan and build a wireframe. This includes paying attention to layout, font size, and visual hierarchy. We then organize how the information is structured. This is to ensure that what we are creating is clear.
The first draft is the first take on the project. We get an initial product out there, and discuss it thoroughly. We make notes on the changes that need to be implemented, and work towards creating a final product.
This is where we create a final product for the end user. This is what the audience gets to see. Once the final product has been approved, the project is considered complete. Afterwards, we offer one month of additional support at no extra cost.
We will provide one month of additional website maintenance for free once the project is complete. This is where I offer additional support for custom web design services, however this does not change the original project scope.
Working on complex challenges and then finding simple yet effective solutions is something we enjoy doing. With a passion for communicating ideas to people visually through different mediums, and an excitement for programming.
You will receive a great website and high quality work from us. Our passion is in the details, and we put great care and attention in each secure custom website that we do.
We build engaging websites that are easy to use, intuitive and simple. Finding the right information on your new website will be clear. You will be happy with the results.
While we deliver on quality your wallet doesn’t have to take a toll. We work at a reasonable rate, and price our work fairly. Leaving you satisfied with the end results.
Our first kickoff meeting for discussions and the write up for the project proposal is free! This way we can more accurately evaluate your goals and needs, work within your budget and create a tailored plan that is right for you.
Absolutely! Skylight Designs is a web design & development business, and we can certainly assist you with creating websites for you. We are able to create Hugo, WordPress and Craft CMS powered websites. Please contact us for more details.
We do provide basic graphic design services, and can design logos and brochures in accompaniment to your website. While print is not the forefront of our business’ focus, we do offer some basic graphic design services.
Yes we do accept credit card payments. You can pay an invoice online via credit card, through the Wave accounting application we use. We also accept e-transfers, checks, and cash.
Depending on how large the project is, some projects may have a written proposal and agreement outlining the scope of the work. On occasion, both signatures; from myself and from the client, may be required to start the project.
Our average turn around time is between 4 to 6 weeks, to design and develop fully fleshed out websites built and integrated with advanced content management systems.
"When we wanted to create our first commercial website for Distinctive Audio, it seemed like a daunting project –we just didn't know what was involved or how to get started. Sebastian was a pleasure to work with; his creative design ideas, combined with his impressive technical skills and attention to detail, resulted in a website that surpassed our expectations in its features, appearance and functionality. He had both the confidence and the know-how to get the results we were looking for."
"His valuable knowledge of the latest programs used to develop this type of marketing tool was impressive and he consistently presented innovative ways to convey various ideas. Sebastian understands the importance of how images are used to convey an idea and presented a final product that exceeded my expectations."
"Skylight Designs did great work for me for a non-commercial personal archives site. Sebastian really listened to my requirements and used his knowledge of design and coding to develop an attractive site with archive holdings and audio files that will have zero ongoing storage costs. Sebastian is a pleasure to work with and provides his excellent services at a reasonable rate."
