Unbloated
WordPress.

Custom Gutenberg blocks, ACF Pro field setups, and headless WordPress. Editors get block-based authoring they actually enjoy; developers get clean, typed code they respect.

// what we do

Four ways we build WordPress.

Most WordPress sites are assembled. Ours are built. Four project types, pick the one that fits.

01 /

Custom themes

Hand-coded themes with ACF Pro fields, custom blocks, and a content model your editors actually understand.

02 /

Headless WP

WordPress as the editor's home, Astro or Next.js as the front-end. All the speed, none of the theme bloat.

03 /

WooCommerce

For small and medium stores. Custom checkout, subscriptions, multi-currency, with performance-tuned hosting.

04 /

Migrations and audits

From any platform, to WordPress or off it. Performance audits, security hardening, plugin bloat reduction.

// the toolkit

The WordPress stack.

We pair WordPress with modern tooling so your team keeps the dashboard they know, the site stops feeling like it was built in 2015.

// how we work

Four phases.
Same as always.

The WordPress process is the same as every other engagement: scope, design, build, ship. Plus an editor handover, because the people typing into the CMS every day deserve a 20-minute walkthrough.

P1 /

Content model

Before any pixel, we model the content. What is a post type, what is a block, what is an option. Editors are in the room from day one.

Week 1
ACF / Gutenberg map
P2 /

Block Library

A block library built around your content model. Editors compose pages from ready pieces, they don't fight templates or ask for a dev every time.

Week 1 – 2
Figma + Storybook
P3 /

Theme build

Custom theme, custom blocks, ACF fields wired. Hosting chosen, object cache configured, security hardened.

Week 2 – n
Staging from day 3
P4 /

Editor handover

30-minute walkthrough recording + a written cheat-sheet for your editors. 30 days of support included.

Three shapes.

Same three engagement shapes as the rest of the studio, sized for WordPress projects.

Words from editors.

For the first time in five years, my team stopped fighting the CMS. They actually enjoy publishing now.

// before you ask

WordPress FAQ.

Do you use page builders?

No. No Elementor, no Divi, no WPBakery. We build custom Gutenberg blocks instead, editors get the same compose-by-block feel without the bloat, the lock-in, or the 6 MB JavaScript bundle.

Headless or classic WordPress, which is right for us?

Honest answer: classic is fine for most sites under 50 pages. Headless earns its complexity once you need editorial workflows, multilingual at scale, or you are seriously performance-bound. We will tell you which one you actually need on the discovery call.

Will our existing content survive a migration?

Yes posts, media, URLs, metadata, authors. We build a 301 redirect map for every changed URL and run a crawl after launch to make sure nothing 404s.

What about WooCommerce?

We build with WooCommerce for small and medium stores. For larger or more demanding builds, we will steer you toward a custom web application and explain why, no upsell, just the honest fit.
