RECENT PROJECTS

Strategic refresh

With over 30 years’ experience as a strategist, Tony helps his customers apply fresh thinking to enhance their business, which is also what we did for his website.

Sensory stimulation

We built an e-commerce portal for the New Zealand distributor of this global fitness technology business. You might say we helped them get a foot in the door.

Portal to Provence

This client is competing with large global players and needed a slick and professional-looking online booking site. It also includes reviews, a small shop, secure payments and the option for property owners to log in and manage their own listing.

Shopping basket

This small business had an existing website but wanted to boost their online ordering and refresh the design. Using an off-the-shelf template as a starting point, we gave them a budget-friendly, intuitive portal.

Niche Saas application

spark-e is custom-designed SaaS for the South African market; an easy-to-use management tool for electrical, plumbing, beetle, gas and electric fence inspections.

At your service

A simple but impactful infinite scroll design combined with multi-language options put this new concierge and laundry services start-up firmly on the map in Provence within weeks of launch.

A little bit of wizardry

A corporate website refresh for this management consultancy breathed new life into their existing content, true to their mission to transform and improve business performance.

Good to great

A suite of four websites for this global fitness brand that wanted e-commerce sites conforming to their international identity while resonating locally in Japan, South Africa and New Zealand.

Home sweet home

This independent real estate agent needed a showcase for their luxury Cape Town property listings with a built-in CMS so that they can update their site and upload new pictures instantly. Sold!

Big in Japan

Incorporating demonstration videos and other interactive elements, this fitness product site in Japanese also had to cater for multiple levels of customer logins, downloadable products and online purchases.

Colonial chic

This boutique guest house wanted to bring thier site up to date while reflecting the character and charm of the property itself. Features include smart image galleries, a guestbook and local area info.

Island hopping

This family-owned Greek island villa hasn’t changed much in three generations, but their website is now bang up to date, with modern lines and easy-to-use online calendar and booking.

Communication is key

With the global refresh of its brand, we helped this regional board update their website, created secondary local chapter sites, and introduced a suite of new features such as a job board and events calendar, while expanding content and their social media presence.

Fit for purpose

This small business in New Zealand wanted a showcase and online shop for their range of fitness products. We created this site in just a day!

All about people

A colourful shop window for a team of HR consultants and leadership coaches in the UK. A great example of a simple but effective website for a small consultancy.

Surgical precision

This surgeon wanted a fun, approachable yet professional-looking site that would stand out from the crowd, house plenty of complex medical information and could be self-managed after go-live.

Author showcase

As part of her process to get published, this budding author wanted a simple portal to showcase her profile and promote her book, as well as generating a pre-publication subscriber fanbase.

Does your site need a refresh?

There’s never been a better time to spice up your online presence. The world-wide COVID-19 pandemic means that many small businesses must change the way they operate. Fast. Teachers, high street shops, personal trainers, consultants … millions have been impacted.

I have worked with Hot Chilli Box on many projects since 2004. There’s a pattern to their work – they listen and can always be relied on to offer intelligent and practical perspectives. They ask smart questions, and then get on with it. They’ve also worked seamlessly alongside in-house and agency employees so we felt like one team, resulting in products everyone is delighted with.
