STONE SUPPLIES - DONCASTER


With one successful website under his belt, the owner of sleepersupplies.co.uk had decided to expenad his product base with natural stone.

He wanted a site that would compliment his existing site but also look and feel lik a different company. We decided to give the site a natural earthy feel with a simple flash navigation bar and large stone images to enhance and compliment his product range.

He also wanted to manage the site himself so we developed a bespoke back office so that he could manage the entire site without having to come back to us with minor changes.
