Kobe Creative Studio is a boutique freelance web development practice offering end-to-end design and build for businesses that value quality, craft, and originality. Named after a much-loved cat, the studio carries an independent spirit — personal, attentive, and precise.
With over nine years of hands-on experience across industries, every project is built on a modern, professional-grade toolchain. No page builders, no compromises on code quality, and no hidden dependencies — ever.
Built with
intention.
A selection of recent projects — each one scoped, built, and delivered to brief. No templates. No shortcuts.
Different by
design.
Every project is defined in writing before work begins. No scope creep, no moving goalposts — just a clear brief, a clear plan, and a result you’re proud of.
Your site, your source code, your credentials — handed over in full on completion. No recurring licence fees, no dependencies on us continuing to exist, no strings.
You work directly with the developer building your site. No account managers, no hand-offs, no Chinese whispers. Just clear, direct communication.
Sage, Blade, SASS, GSAP, WooCommerce. The same tools used by top-tier agencies — not off-the-shelf builders that trade quality for speed.
End-to-end,
front to back.
Every service is delivered personally — no outsourcing, no hand-offs. You deal directly with the person building your site.
Fully custom WordPress sites using Sage, Blade templating, and SASS. No page builders, no off-the-shelf themes — every component written from scratch to your exact requirements.
Rich, performant animations built with GSAP — scroll-triggered reveals, SVG morphing, parallax layers, and polished micro-interactions that make a site feel alive without sacrificing performance.
Custom storefronts built on WooCommerce — tailored checkout flows, product catalogues, payment gateway integration, and performance architecture built for conversion.
Ongoing support, plugin updates, security monitoring, and priority development hours. Flexible monthly retainers that keep your site healthy without locking you into a long-term contract.
Five stages.
Zero surprises.
Every project follows the same clear process. Each stage requires sign-off before the next begins — so nothing moves forward until you’re happy.
We dig into your brief, goals, audience, and competitors. You leave with a clear scope document and project timeline — before a single line of code is written.
Wireframes, style direction, and component design agreed before build begins. You sign off on how it looks before we touch the theme.
Development in staged sprints using our full stack — Sage, Blade, SASS, and GSAP. Regular check-ins keep you in the loop throughout.
Two structured feedback rounds included. Each revision is tracked, scoped, and confirmed in writing so nothing slips through the cracks.
Deployment, DNS setup, CMS handover training, and a 30-day post-launch support window. You own everything — code, content, and credentials.
Trusted by
those who care.
The attention to detail was unlike anything I’d experienced with a freelancer before. The animations are smooth, the code is clean, and the whole process was painless.
Delivered on brief, on time, and under budget. The clear scoping and sign-off process meant no surprises — just a site that our clients consistently compliment.
Communicative, thorough, and delivered exactly what was promised. The dev handover was the smoothest we’ve had — everything documented, everything working. Would use again without hesitation.
Working with Kobe was refreshingly straightforward. Everything was scoped clearly, updates came without being asked for, and the final site genuinely exceeded what we’d imagined.
We needed a WooCommerce build that felt premium, not like a template. That’s exactly what we got. Attention to detail across the board — highly recommend.
