Nick Vellacott, Director, Highlight PR
Chris has just finished a great re-design of The Filter’s website. Simple, clear and effective – everything we wanted, done efficiently but with flair. Can strongly recommend.”
CEO, The Filter
Chris is always quick and responsive to our business needs. We felt sure we’d be closed down due to the coronavirus. But we drew up an idea for a takeaway service and Chris rearranged the website tastefully and carefully within hours. We began trading as a takeaway service the next day. It’s still thriving!”
Rosy Hall, The Bathwick Boatman Restaurant
Chris was a pleasure to work with. He took the time to fully understand what we were trying to achieve before starting work and was always willing to go the extra mile to ensure we ended up exactly where we needed to be. Would happily recommend tallhatDesign to anyone!”
Gary Haberfield, Touch Blue Systems
