Meet our very nice Bristolian website design company

About Studio Cotton

We’re a small independent team of overeager, nerds, art kids, and nerdy art kids – all striving to apply our knowledge and creativity to your website.

For small business, small teams, small beginnings — and serious success

As a small business ourselves, we understand limited budgets – money, time and brain-space for all those creative, expert jobs – so we focus on efficient, practical and easy-to-follow solutions for all your website challenges. 

Frankly, we care an obscene amount about seeing other small businesses thrive, and just want to see the world filled with more nice things and happy people. 

Our Studio Cotton values

Candour

All sincerity and no judgement – we respect your business too much to not share the harder truths and provide feedback from our extensive experience and expertise.

Kindness

Honesty is nothing without kindness; as a small business ourselves, we’re always empathetic to the challenges small businesses and their owners face.

Pragmatism

It’s not a sexy word – but it is the right one. We’re all about ideas and decisions that just make sense based on all the factors – budget, time, team, goals, and most importantly, ROI.

Crafting websites in the centre of Bristol since 2016

Consciously, specifically small

We’ve only ever wanted to work with independent businesses and podcasts. Yep, we’re a little bit selfish – we pick the service products and services that really butter our toast.  

Over the years, we’ve built 80+ websites, tailoring every service, every package and every nugget of advice for small teams and indie brands.  

And we’re pretty ruddy proud of what we’ve created.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Studio Cotton - in fact, I would recommend that any small business reaches out for some advice and support at some kind of level.

As a person who used to do zero planning and a LOT of winging it, Studio Cotton has been a godsend!

I already knew that Aime knew her stuff from the work she shares online but the level of detail in our one hour session was another level.
Liz Mosley
The website is better than I could ever have imagined. There are features that I would never have even thought to ask for, and it makes me so proud to promote the podcast and send people to the website! I have had so many compliments.
Jennifer
Every so often we come across those real experts who really know their shit. They explain complex info so simply, make a real impact and offer a real solution to you? Well, amazing Aime at Studio Cotton is one of those.
